@natleg22,

You can copy over the file to your theme and edit accordingly

or use gettext function

e.g

‘function change_word_test( $translated_text, $text, $domain ) {
switch ( $translated_text ) {
case ‘Put all the words here’ :
$translated_text = __( ‘Put your version of the words here’ );
break;

}
return $translated_text;
}
‘add_filter( ‘gettext’, ‘change_word_test’ );’

or simply follow @bphelp, instruction

@natleg22
Re-read the instructions please it is the most proper way to complete your requirement and the instructions are explained clearly in the link provided.

@natleg22
If you followed the instructions you shouldn’t have an issue. I always translate on my local dev environment and then FTP it to the live server. If you feel uncomfortable doing this then you may want to consider hiring someone to do it for you. No more than your asking for it shouldn’t cost much more than $30.00 but that is totally up to the developer.
