 * Sorry it’s me again..
    I try to get the „Select Google Language“ into the button,
   so that visitors can see that it is not a professional translation but a google
   translation. But can’t find the hook to do it – replace text in function does
   not work… Could you please help me?

 * AH… and I forgot:
 *  the name of my company should not be translated (the translations are really
   horrible :)) There must be a possibility via php to exclude a string from translation..

 * Hi Dumbo,
 * Thank you very much to come back to us again.
 * For your initial question regarding the text change, currently, it is not possible.
   We do have it in our roadmap, as it is something we will add in the future but
   it won’t be in the next release.
 * For the second question, which is quite good 🙂 we have created this topic here
   as it is a good candidate for an FAQ [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/do-not-translate-certain-text/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/do-not-translate-certain-text/)

 * I tried function replace string.. but as I don’t know your origin wording (it
   is not Select language) for the button I can’t change it.
    All I need is the 
   word Google somewhere in the button.. tried to change value or use :before via
   CSS but can’t find the correct hook
 * There must be a trick.. please think again pretty pretty please 🙂

 * You can’t find it on the source code because it is added with JS. What you can
   do is implement a JS function that waits until the DOM element is loaded and 
   change its content. Try with something like this [https://stackoverflow.com/a/15415118/3519811](https://stackoverflow.com/a/15415118/3519811)
 * The selector path is `.goog-te-gadget-simple .goog-te-menu-value span`
