# Quick translate or replace single words

In general our plugin is [ready to be translated in your language](https://getaawp.com/docs/article/translate-aawp-into-your-language/). Additionally you can edit certain text strings (e.g. sale ribbon or button text) easily via [plugin settings](https://getaawp.com/docs/article-category/settings/).

Anyway there might be some situation where you don't want to make use of our prepared translations or only want to replace single words.

Therefore we prepared a filter which can be used to quickly replace single terms.

In this example we're going to update the text "Reviews" to "Amazon Reviews".

### Making use of our filter

The filter looks as follows:

`add_filter( 'aawp_replace_translations', function( $translations ) {`

$translations['%s Reviews'] = '%s Amazon Reviews';

return $translations;
 });

We prepared an article which shows [how to add custom PHP code snippets](https://getaawp.com/docs/article/custom-php-code-snippets/) to your site.

After adding our little PHP snippet the output looks as follows:
