Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to
report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
"and" in between was never supported here.

But leaving it out entirely is fine:

It's not particularly about "and", see <https://3v4l.org/cVbcv>.

"and" (where the parsing fails) should probably then be added to the docs as a
supported/ignored word.

It also fails in 7.2.17

Description:
------------
When calling DateInterval::createFromDateString() with "6 years and 4 months" as argument,
it generates a warning. (See https://3v4l.org/sQjh2)
Note: as a workaround (for the case mentioned) I'm using new \DateInterval('P6Y4M')
Test script:
---------------
<?php
var_dump(\DateInterval::createFromDateString('6 years and 4 months'));
Expected result:
----------------
object(DateInterval)#1 (16) {
["y"]=> int(6)
["m"]=> int(4)
["d"]=> int(0)
["h"]=> int(0)
["i"]=> int(0)
["s"]=> int(0)
["f"]=> float(0)
["weekday"]=> int(0)
["weekday_behavior"]=> int(0)
["first_last_day_of"]=> int(0)
["invert"]=> int(0)
["days"]=> bool(false)
["special_type"]=> int(0)
["special_amount"]=> int(0)
["have_weekday_relative"]=> int(0)
["have_special_relative"]=> int(0)
}
Actual result:
--------------
Warning: DateInterval::createFromDateString(): Unknown or bad format (6 years and 4 months) at
position 8 (a)
