 * Hey guys, this plugin looks promising. Before I dive into it I just want to confirm
   that it will work for me. all I am trying to do is change a few strings within
   buddypress so for example “forums” can become “discussions” — will this plugin
   help with this?

 * Hi there,
 * no, MultilingualPress will not help you with translating _template strings_ of
   plugins, themes, or even WordPress itself.
 * MultilingualPress is designed to help you translate your **content**.
 * For what you described, you could do this by using one or more custom templates,
   or a custom translation file, or a filter function, or … 😉
 * Kind regards,
    Thorsten
