You can achieve this by putting below code in your theme's functions.php file

function change_post_object_label() {
        global $wp_post_types;
        $post_labels = &$wp_post_types['post']->labels;
        $page_labels = &$wp_post_types['page']->labels;

        $post_labels->add_new = 'add new post';
        $page_labels->add_new = 'add new page';

    }
    add_action( 'init', 'change_post_object_label' );
