There are cases in which we need to send a date format in Spanish to a sql query, for example the format of (Abril 28 2020) and for this we must do the following:

$ query = mysqli_query ($ conn, "SET lc_time_names = 'es_ES';");

$ query = $ conn-> prepare ('SELECT id, DATE_FORMAT (date, "% M% d% Y") ,, text FROM table WHERE id =?');

Keep in mind that these queries are what we should do in our developments to avoid sql injection.
