JQuery Calender (Possible to edit it to my needs)

I am using the Datepicker of JQuery calender http://jqueryui.com/datepicker/ The days are shown in English, but I need them shown in another language. Is there a way to achieve this?

Also the date format is: mm/dd/year, but I want it this way mm-dd-year. This is because there is some written code that uses this format, and I don't have access to that. Can I change this somehow?

Thanks

For changing dateFormat use this

$( ".selector" ).datepicker({ dateFormat: "mm-dd-yy" });

In the documentation look for localization to change language
