Collabora Online is a collaborative online office suite based on LibreOffice technology. This is also the source for the Collabora Office apps for iOS and Android.
in the sidebar's "Style" dropdown, it showed a "foreign language":
Corps de texte
even though the entire rest of my UI was in English:
(See how toolbar version shows correct "Body Text" highlighted, but the sidebar version shows "Corps de texte"!)
Note: This bug probably requires multiple users (with mixes of UI/browser languages) at same time. I was in "English (US)" + at least 1 other user was in a "French" browser.
Steps to Reproduce
In Writer:
View > Sidebar ON.
Click in any paragraph with the "Body Text" Style applied.
BUG: Look at sidebar's Style dropdown.
Expected Behavior
If UI is English, everything to be in English.
"Home" tab Styles + Sidebar's "Styles" menu/dropdown should always match.
Actual Behavior
Sidebar "Styles" menu/dropdown sometimes lists "foreign"/translated Styles.
"Corps de texte" in French == "Body Text" in English

@pedropintosilva was able to also able see same issue.
@Minion3665 was the one with a "French" browser.
Other users may have had different UIs/mixes too.
While this bug was occurring, I also noticed...
When I opened sidebar's "Styles" dropdown, it also had lots of other strange "French" Styles showing below English "Heading 1":
Maybe that might give a hint to root of problem too:
Corps de texte = Body Text
Notice in screenshot, both the English "Body Text" + French "Corps de texte" existed.
And that the French version in sidebar was highlighted instead!
En-tête = Header
Texte préformaté = Preformatted Text
Titre 1 = Title 1
Titre 2 = Title 2
Titre 3 = Title 3
Titre principal = Main Title
Odd thing was, the French names only appeared in the "Sidebar" version, and didn't seem to appear in the "Home" tab version. (But I didn't look TOO TOO closely through every Style in the Home tab previews.)
