As you can see, creating a multi-language website with core Joomla is quite simple!
LANGUAGE OVERRIDES
If you notice language strings that are not appropriate to your website you can change them in
Extensions -> Language Manager -> Overrides.
A language string is composed of two parts: a specific language constant and its value.
For example, in the string:
"""" COM_CONTENT_READ_MORE="Read more: "
'COM_CONTENT_READ_MORE' is the constant and 'Read more: ' is the value.
You have to use the specific language constant in order to create an override of the value.
Therefore, you can search for the constant or the value you want to change with the search field
below.
By clicking on the desired result the correct constant will automatically be inserted into the form.
You can search for these language strings and overrides them by filling the formwith your customized
texts (Figure 10).
