Steps to reproduce the issue

Install Engage, and add comments. The text below the article on the featured articles page contains the word "thought" and not "comment".

Expected result

"6 comments on “subject”

Actual result

"6 thoughts on “subject”

Troubleshooting already performed

I tried to replace this string with the language overrides for the site, but that did not work. When I added a override for the admin site it worked, but the strings are in the front end and not in the backend...

This is intentional. The idea here is that Engage was a drop-in replacement to WordPress comments for people who come to Joomla from WordPress. Please read the docs for language overrides https://github.com/akeeba/engage/wiki/Language-overrides

This may be true, but I still think "thought" should be replaced with "comment" to be consistent with the rest.

I have changed the lang files. I don't know why people have this kind of visceral reaction to “thought” versus “comment”. If I were a psychologist I would probably find a correlation between that and the thoughtless comments flooding the Internet all over. But I'm not, I'm just a developer, and I'm tired of telling people that this is a stupidly trivial thing to change with documented instructions in the wiki.
