Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Yes. Currently, the globe icon in the interface is not labeled or explained, which may confuse new users or those unfamiliar with the UI. Users might not immediately understand that it is meant for language selection.

Describe the solution you'd like
When a user hovers over the globe icon, a small tooltip or text should appear displaying "Languages". This will help users quickly understand the purpose of the icon before clicking.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Adding a label next to the icon (but it may clutter the UI)

Including a brief help guide or icon legend (less immediate and intuitive)

Additional context
This enhancement will improve accessibility and user experience by providing clear visual feedback. It also aligns with common UX practices for icon-based navigation.
