Can we use the translated forms function to manage forms in multiple languages more easily?

Currently forms are being duplicated and manually translated with separate links for each form. Formstack supports translation of forms into other languages.

Supported languages

Afrikaans, Albanian, Arabic, Bulgarian, Chinese, Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Icelandic, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Kazakh, Korean, Norwegian (Bokmål),Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Vietnamese, and Welsh

To add to this: When you save a section on Formstack (ex. "add household members" section that is made up of 4 questions,) do you have the option to switch between languages rather than create different versions?
