How do I change the translation of a single word of an inherited module?

Question

I inherited res_partner, the problem is that I would like to change the translation of a single word. In Italian the word "name" is translated as "nome" but also the word "first name" translates as "nome". what I would like to do is change the translation of res_partner to change the "name" (first name + last name) to "Full name". How can I do?

Hi,
1. Export the translation file from the addons you want to override.
2. Translate it using POEeit or similar.
3. Drop the translation file inside a  i18n_extra  folder in the addon. E.g.:  addon/i18n_extra/fr.pot
4. Update the addon.
With that system, a sub-module is able to override translations from parent modules.

Hope it helps

My solution:
I have added the string from inherit model on my .po file
#: model:ir.model.fields,field_description:base.field_res_partner__name

Now I see correctly
