French /English Translation mangles dates

in France the date format is day month year .In the UK it is also day month year The translate button swaps the order to month day year. The only country in the world that uses this order is America. I’m in the UK. The language setting is English (United Kingdom). So this is a bug.

Hey@ NewAccountToPostThis

You are of course correct, however, perhaps the ISO 8600
International standard is being used.

ISO 8601 (YYYY-MM-DD): Is the international standard used to avoid confusion
in international commerce and programming, which for today is 2026-05-01

thanks but emclient is doing a bad job of implementing this ISO – the year is at the wrong end!

(Maybe its just the Stonehenge calendar?!?)

Hey@NewAccountToPostThis

Maybe, anything is possible and nothing would surprise me!
Or perhaps it was that Erich Von Daniken wrote “The Gods Were Astronauts”
