Calendar date written in English with the month name, full or abbreviated, capitalised or in lower case. The day comes first (5 May 2022, 5th May 2022, 5.May.2022, 5-May-2022, 25-Dec-20) or after the month (May 5, 2022; Sept. 5, 2022; Dec 25th 2024). A weekday may come first (Monday, 5 May 2022; Mon, Dec 5, 2022), also before a day-first numeric date (Monday, 25/12/2024).
