 * hello!
    I have a multilingual site and WooCommerce. WooCommerce has Polylang 
   Pro installed. WooCommerce PayPal Payments installed for payment on the payment
   method selection page, the button name does not change depending on the language–
   [https://prnt.sc/P9NzBa_pxU_f](https://prnt.sc/P9NzBa_pxU_f) . How can I make
   the text on the button change depending on the language of the site? I don’t 
   see this tv text in plugin translations or translation strings

 * Hi [@prog7](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prog7/),
 * PayPal automatically determines the language for the buttons. The buttons come
   directly from PayPal and cannot be translated via translation files.
    PayPal 
   detects each buyer’s location and language preferences to display relevant buttons
   in a language the buyer is familiar with. This means the button language is not
   expected to change when the site locale changes. So if I were to visit your site,
   PayPal would automatically present me with buttons with a German label.
 * A feature to manually override the button language was previously requested [here on GitHub](https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-paypal-payments/issues/600).
   I suggest leaving a comment or thumbs up on that issue if you are interested 
   in it.
    There’s a good chance of a feature like this being included in a future
   update as it is marked `parity`, but I can’t comment on when it could be expected.
   But more user feedback may help speed it up! In any case, I hope this explains
   a bit better how the language is decided.
 * Kind regards,
    Niklas
