Problem description

  • User may have or not certain expectations concerning the date/time format based on the selected language. This includes the used flag which represents a country rather than a language.
  • Date/time in different countries vary in order for year, month and day. This is especially true when comparing US English and British English formats.

Solution

  • Always use the language selector to inform the user about the current region used for the date format
  • Month must always be spelled using letters not numbers
