Or if it's too difficult, in english :

You can use Date.prototype.toLocaleDateString()

var date = new Date(Date.UTC(2017, 11, 20, 3, 0, 0));

var options = { year: "numeric", month: "long"};
console.log(date.toLocaleDateString("fr-FR", options));
// -> Novembre 2017

It require additional library, but it gives flexibility in dealing with dates! – Mr. Aniket Nov 12 '17 at 16:48
