Temporal.PlainDate.prototype.toPlainMonthDay()

The toPlainMonthDay() method of {{jsxref("Temporal.PlainDate")}} instances returns a new {{jsxref("Temporal.PlainMonthDay")}} object representing the {{jsxref("Temporal/PlainDate/monthCode", "monthCode")}} and {{jsxref("Temporal/PlainDate/day", "day")}} of this date in the same calendar system.
