Edit the language text within the language selection dropdown menu

How can I edit the text within the language selector menu within a survey?
We currently use English UK, so the dropdown menu of the language selector tool shows:

  • “English (United Kingdom)” which is language one.
  • “Nederlands” - Meaning: Dutch, which is language two.

Example:

 

We would like to only show the text/string English, not English (United Kingdom). I tried with a jQuery within the header, but was not able to change the text. I'm probably using the wrong jQuery: jQuery("#Q_lang" .QuestionText").html("English");

That jQuery also does not focus on just the English string.

Hope you can help, many thanks in advance!

Put this in your survey header or footer:

<script>
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function() {
	jQuery("option[value=EN-GB]").text("English");
});
</script>
