如何在法语中获取日期 object 时区文本？

Question

When I use new Date() I get o/p as Mon Nov 30 2020 16:41:46 GMT-0500 (Eastern Standard Time) . Can I get Eastern Standard Time in french? I tried with the following, but didn't work. Is there any method to return french text?

 var d = new Date(); console.log(d); console.log(d.toLocaleString("fr-FR"));

I need to detect the visitor timezone and display it as Eastern etc.. timezone. Since, my app is in french, is there a way to get the visitor timezone and translate it into french. I know I can do it by using translate service. I am just curious if there is a method that translates the timezone automatically to desired language. Everything is translated with toLocaleString, just the Eastern Standard Time. I can pass options as const options = { weekday: 'long', year: 'numeric', month: 'long', day: 'numeric' }; , is there a option for EST.

This works for me

 var d= new Date(); var options = { weekday: 'long', year: 'numeric', month:'long', day: 'numeric' }; //options.timeZone = "UTC"; options.timeZoneName = "long"; console.log(d.toLocaleDateString("fr-FR", options));

This prints "lundi 30 novembre 2020 à heure normale d'Europe centrale"

Modify the options to suit your needs:)
