   The date_i18n() function basically behaves exactly like the normal PHP date() function, except that it also translates things like month names and weekdays and similar into the current locale for the site. You can replace a call to date() with a call to date_i18n(), using the same arguments that date() normally takes.

   The date_i18n() function also takes an additional argument, which should be used only if you’re specifying GMT (UTC) time and not a local time.

   The core of WordPress includes the necessary pieces to translate months and days and so forth in the core code, so this function is one translation function which does not need a text-domain when used in plugins and themes. The translations will always be included in the core language packs.

   Note that the “format”, however, is not converted to a local one if you manually specify it. If you need a localized format, then you should use get_option('date_format') if you need the format set by the user in Settings->General, and thus one of their choosing. Alternatively, you can wrap your predefined format in __() in order to allow translators to adjust the date to the proper local format. If you do so, then you should also include a translator comment, to let the translators know what the date format is referring to and where it is used, so they can convert it accurately.

Depending on your blog settings you will see the date displayed in your local format, for example: 15. november 1976.

<?php echo date_i18n( get_option( 'date_format' ), strtotime( '11/15-1976' ) ); ?>
