string first = $"It's the {DateTime.Now.Day} of the {DateTime.Now.Month} month";

FormattableString second = $It's the {DateTime.Now.Day} of the {DateTime.Now.Month} month";

The compiler generates different code depending on the compile-time type of the output being requested. The code that generates a string will format that string based on the current culture of the machine.
