Background of the issue:
I am working on a site under development and I want a shortcode to be different for each translation because the shortcode is language specific. I have been using a workaround by manually editing the language page using Elementor, but this gets overridden each time I translate.

Symptoms:
The shortcode is overridden each time I translate.

Questions:
How can I make a shortcode different for each translation without it being overridden?
