Description
hi,
i don't know if i'm not using in the right way but when i type:
`
test = dateparser.parse('12 sep 2020')
datetime.datetime(2020, 9, 12, 0, 0)
test = dateparser.parse('12 sept 2020')

Research direction
Run the two dateparser.parse examples from the report, then trace how French month abbreviations are interpreted. Done means the French input 12 sept 2020 no longer produces July and the existing September example remains correct.
