… which is as I would expect it.

However, I'm only _guessing_ that these pages are active in some way,
and that that activity generates the menus at the top. If so, then the
language to use for that activity is English, as set in preferences.
One would also expect the activity itself (rather than the language
it is expressed in) to be the same in all the languages supported.

The contents of the page in each language might be quite different.
The translators might modify cultural and language references in ways
that they feel are appropriate for their readers. Those sorts of
differences wouldn't be expected in the menu generation.

I haven't seen an actual problem expressed by anyone about what is
displayed. Is there one, other than a casual observation?

Cheers,
David.
