    Hello Eric,

    Thank you for contacting Jotform Support. I believe you're referring to changing the months of the Date Picker elements language. Yes, it's possible to change it depending on your preference. Let me show you how.

    • In your form builder, add the Date Picker element.
    • Click the gear icon and scroll down to Months.
    • From here, you can customize it based on your preferred language just like on the screencast below.

    In addition, you can also enable entire form translation. In order to translate the fields, the form is required to have at least 2 languages.

    Please follow the steps below to display the calendar in another language for example.

    1. Since the form is having one language, please try setting English as the default form language and add French(for example) in the Translations by clicking on Edit.

    2. Click on the Edit icon in the Translations window to add the translations as required.

    3. Once the translations are set, the form should be displaying the translated text for date and calendar.
