Background of the issue:
I am managing a multilingual site using WPML and encountering issues with the menu display in the WordPress admin. The menus appear duplicated and in one language, although they are correctly separated and identified in different languages in the database and the left menu.
Symptoms:
Menus in the WordPress admin are intermittently showing all in one language instead of separate languages. This issue occurs occasionally, and the menus sometimes revert to displaying correctly without any clear reason.
Questions:
Why do the menus in the admin appear all in one language instead of multiple languages?
What could be causing the intermittent nature of this issue where the menus sometimes display correctly?
Here is the ticket. I will need to closely examine your website. Therefore, I will require temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to a test site where the problem has been replicated, if possible. This will enable me to provide better assistance and determine if any configurations need to be modified.
Please note that it is important to have a backup for security purposes and to prevent any potential data loss. You can use the UpdraftPlus plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/updraftplus/) to fulfill your backup requirements.
Your upcoming reply will be treated with confidentiality and will only be visible to you and me.
✙ To resolve the issue, I may need your consent to deactivate and reactivate plugins and the theme, as well as make configuration changes on the site if necessary. This emphasizes the significance of having a backup.

Please check this link for more details https://wpml.org/home/minimum-requirements/.
You can increase it by adding the following code in your wp-config.php file, right before the /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy publishing. */ line:
