How can i translate custom module text that i cant with inline translate in Magento 2

Question

There are many text in my custom theme and modules that i can't translate. I tried inline translate but there's no little book or red dots. Also tried to create i18n folders inside and outside the modules' root folder with en_US.csv and hu_HU.csv after changing the locale but nothing.

This is what i see when i check the source code:

<th class=" purchased-date" scope:"col">Purchased Date</th>

Thank you

Make sure that you are using translatable strings. For example:

<h3><?php echo __('Create Backup') ?></h3>

You can translate the strings with inline translation or i18n theme packages if you've done everything correctly.
