Changing languages for specific parts

Changing languages for specific parts

I want to change some parts from the theme I'm testing to another language (from english to portuguese), but I can't find the proper place to do that.

 

I wanted to change the word "Search" and "Cart" on the top right to portuguese.

I'm on the demo version of the theme, haven't bought it yet, do I have to buy it to change those things?

 

Also I already have brazilian portuguese as the default published language on shopify.

 

I'm using this theme https://themes.shopify.com/themes/soul/styles/default

Yes, you'll need to buy it in order to change some parts of the theme

Hi @Gxbriel  to understand this use a free theme to edit wording in the ENGLISH translations to contain foreign words.

Then look at the locale for the other language.

Also see the shopify translation app https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/international/languages/translate-adapt-app 

 

The thing to note here is you cannot mix languages entire locales values inside a theme, rendering pulls in one language at a time based on store settings, and visitors language/currency selection.

So it's either putting foreign words into another languages locale, or completely changing a stores locale to a specific language.

 

Getting around that to mix entire locales is advanced theme customization,  or apps.
