  I have a site with 2 languages: Nl and En
  Everything translates to Dutch but only the date stays in English...
  
  I use this to get my news items:
  
  ```
  {% for entry in craft.entries.section('news').limit(6).find() %}
      <li>
                <p>{{ entry.title}} {{ entry.postDate.format('d M Y') }}</p>
                <a href="{{ entry.url }}">{{ entry.title }}</a>
              </li>
  {% endfor %}
  
  ```
  
  The month stays in English, how can I format de post date, with the locale I'm viewing the site?

  Instead of:
  
  ```
  {{ entry.postDate.format('d M Y') }}
  
  ```
  
  Use:
  
  ```
  {{ entry.postDate | date('d M Y') }}
  
  ```
  
  That should work.
