How to change the wording of "Comments"

Note: Before adjusting the HTML in your template, it is recommended that you copy the entire template, paste it into Word or TextPad/Notepad, and save it. If you make any errors, you can always start again from your original code.

Look for this tag in your HTML: <!-- Begin .post -->

And then go down about 12 or 13 lines and you'll see this code:

<p class="post-footer">
<em>posted by <$BlogItemAuthorNickname$> @ <a href=<$BlogItemPermalinkUrl$>" title="permanent link"><$BlogItemDateTime$></a></em>  
<BlogItemCommentsEnabled>
<a class="comment-link" href="<$BlogItemCommentCreate>"
<$BlogItemCommentFormOnclick$>>
<$BlogItemCommentCount$>comments</a>
</BlogItemCommentsEnabled>

In red are the areas you can customize.

* * * * *
Once someone clicks on the "Comments" link to read your comments or post a comment of their own, they will see more words that you can customize. This could read "7 people said..." or "2 folks thought..." or whatever you would like! (Blogger inserts the number automatically - that's what the rest of this crazy code is telling it to do.)

Scroll down about 6 or 7 more lines from the code listed above until you see this HTML:

<!-- Begin #comments -->

<ItemPage>

<div id="comments">

<blogitemcommentsenabled><a name="comments"></a>

</blogitemcommentsenabled><h4><$BlogItemCommentCount$> people said...</h4>
