Comment (by Daedalon):

 As Denis-de-Bernardy referred to 4 years ago, different languages have
 different declensions. In the original example where Polish uses locative,
 Finnish uses inessive, and where Polish uses genitive, Finnish uses
 nominative. In Russian it's the same except prepositional instead of
 inessive.

 The solution to the issue should allow specifying "in January" or "on
 Monday" in a way that gets translated correctly regardless of what the
 declination is called in the current language.

 The simplest way might be to have direct translations from English that
 date_i18n then retrieves upon request. As long as date_i18n understands
 when it should be looking for the equivalent of "in January" instead of
 "January", it can return the appropriate translated string.
