how to translate Browse or Choose File for form input type=file based on browser language change

HTML form input type = file is providing "Browse" and "No file Selected" in firefox and "choose File" and "No File Chosen" in chrome to choose a file.

I have a use case to translate "Browse" and "Choose File" as per browser language.

is it possible to do without adding any javascript library?

Thanks in advance

Native input elements are depending on the operating system and the browser that the clients are using. You can workaround with a custom file picker (an input file hidden, a layer that triggers the hidden input file, the text that you like).

You can use this refferences:
