Background of the issue:
I am trying to translate my product attribute labels on my site hidden link using WPML. My main language is Greek, and I have an attribute called Ιπποδύναμη, which means horsepower. The attribute appears correctly in Greek, but I want it to appear as Horsepower in English.

Symptoms:
In the translated language, which is English, the attribute label still appears as Ιπποδύναμη instead of Horsepower, even though the values of the attribute are translated.

Questions:
Where can I translate my product attribute labels in WPML?

The problem is that even though i found the attribute translation it is seemed like the original languge is english and not greek (See screenshot). My original language is greek and the translated language is english.
