Description

Hey there,

as the title says, an option to switch the language of a given recipe would be nice.
A lot of recipes online are in English, and if you want to share the recipe that you imported into your NC cookbook with someone that's not that proficient in English then the only option is to create the same recipe again, but in a different language.

I'm not talking auto translation but an option to get a side by side view to translate a recipe to one or maybe two different languages yourself and a button to switch the display language.

Workaround now, as mentioned above, is to create a new recipe in a different language but that clutters the cookbook with copies of recipes.

Kind regards,

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Begin by mapping how recipes are currently represented and displayed, then define the scope of side-by-side translations and switching the display language. Done means one recipe can hold translations in one or two additional languages without creating duplicate recipes.
