There is a way to do this. The default translations are within the file /ebrmain/language/nl.txt, but you can override any entries there by using a similar file that you create called /system/language/nl.txt. In your case, it should contain the following:

Code:
Nederlands
@BookStore=Boekhandel
If you want to change other entries, you'll have to get a copy of the original and see what the handle for each translation is (i.e. the part with '@' in front of it). This is where things get more complicated. The /ebrmain directory is not accessible from the menus or from the USB mounting. If you have pbterm installed, then you can use it to copy the default file to the SD card or the accessible internal memory. Or, you can install something like utelnetd to give you a shell login over WiFi. Or, you can write or install your own shell app simply for copying that file:

Code:
#!/bin/sh
cp /ebrmain/language/nl.txt /mnt/ext1/nl.txt
Create a file called copy-nl.app with the above contents, copy it to /system/applications, and then run it from the Applications tab on the device. You should then be able to see the file in the root of the internal memory directory over USB mounting. If you use Windows, then use an editor like Notepad++ to create the file, and make sure that you set it to use Unix-style line endings. The default Windows line endings will cause problems for the app file.
