Hi,

Thank you for contacting WPML Support. Could you please follow the below steps and let me know how it goes:

1. Go to WPML >> String Translation page.

2. Select the strings that you want to change/translate in the default language.

3. Assign the dummy language from the “Change the language of selected strings” dropdown, so that we can also translate/change those strings in the default language.

Here is a doc for more details: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/how-to-change-the-source-language-of-strings/

Please let me know if this resolves your issue or if you need further assistance with this issue.

Thank you
