 * Hi
    I developed a website with your theme. The website supports two different
   languages. How can I change the “Search” text for each language I wish to add?(
   Using polylang did not help)
 * Thanks
    Guy

 * Hello Guy!
 * When I need to translate a theme I use this plugin:

 * Hope it helps 🙂

 * I installed this plugin and I am not sure its what I need (looks very complicated).
   
   The question is – if my site has x languages, will the word “search” be in x 
   different languages ?
 * Thanks in advance
    Guy

 * Hey Guy!
 * Well if you need an multi language site the plugin I’ve recommend to you won’t
   solve your problem.
 * Check this page: [http://codex.wordpress.org/Multilingual_WordPress](http://codex.wordpress.org/Multilingual_WordPress)
 * It will give you some ideas to make your site multilingual 🙂
 * Hope it helps.
