Research direction

Read the language screen implementation to find where translation strings are grouped by status and rendered. Show each original English string alongside its translation with a visible separator; done means a reviewer can compare all translations on that screen. The issue does not name files or tests, so first locate the language screen entry point and its existing tests.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

When clicking on a language, all translation strings appear in a single screen, grouped by Status. it would be nice if under or over each translation, the original (EN) text also existed. That way, one could just take a quick look in a single page and see if the quality of all translations is acceptable to him or it needs corrections. Some separators (lines or different background colors) would be nice in this case.
