This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
You are experiencing a critical error when trying to access a translation assigned to you. The error message suggests checking the site admin email for instructions, and the error details indicate an issue with the WPML Multilingual CMS plugin, specifically a TypeError in the Labels.php file.
Solution:
If you're encountering this issue, we recommend the following steps:
1) Navigate to WPML>>Settings>>Custom Fields Translation
2) Click on the System fields link
3) Search for fields by

*_themify*

4) Select the Don't translate option for

*_themify_builder_settings_json*

5) Save the changes
6) Re-send the content for translation in WPML > Translation Management
Please ensure to perform these steps after a full site backup. If this solution does not resolve your issue or seems irrelevant due to being outdated or not applicable to your case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If further assistance is needed, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.
