Changing the text of the forums features

[Strakks]

Hi.

Is there any way for me to change the text features that the forums in my site offers? For example, my site has a marketplace. Therefore I would like to change the "Start New Topic" button to "Create an ad or shop" in the sell forum, and "Create an ad" in the buy forum. Is there any way for me to do that?

Almost all text in the suite can be changed using the Language Translation tools in the admin panel.

Please see these two Guides as a start:

Another thing, lets say I change the via the i"Start New Topic" via the visual editor, will it be changed in every forum?

As @Mark H pointed out, you can change the language strings to anything you want.  This is a very easy and fun way to customize your community.  

The language string will be changed everywhere it is used.  So in the case of "Start New Topic" which is used on every forum, then yes it will be changed in every forum.

OK that's an answer to me. Too bad though, I would like to be able to divide the different buttons in defferent forums. Thanks!
