Hi Simon,
Yes, you can change any error message on the form.
To do that, you need to go to Form Settings –> Translations.
Once you are there, add the English language for example, and click on customize.
A lightbox will pop-up and in that lightbox, you should see the tab for System Messages.
Simply right in the box next to the Message what you want to see instead and hit save.
