This is what I have so far -

$clean[] = "\\3-\\2-\\1";
$pattern[] = "/^([A-Z][a-z]*)[\s-]([0-9]{4,4})$/";
$clean[] = "\\2-\\1-01";
$foo = preg_replace($pattern, $clean, $verb_date);
If I were you, I'd write several regexes, one for each date format you
wish to recognize. It makes the regexes much easier to read, and you
can still write sub-expressions for catching e.g. months and then reuse
those in your main regexes.
