Templating: Jinja2 translate() function

I stumbled across it whilst on this topic, looking for a short solution for mapping German month abbreviations to English ones (although note that the name “translate” is not about translating languages, but sets of characters).

Day and month does not follow locale setting

To my knowledge, all functions of the Jinja2 templating language (and python) default to English (and don’t adapt to the operating system’s locale setting).
