Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, the Select Language dropdown opens only after clicking. This adds an extra interaction step and slows down language switching, especially for desktop users who frequently change languages.


Describe the solution you'd like

Enable the language selector dropdown to automatically open when the user hovers over the “Select Language” button. The dropdown should close when the cursor leaves the menu area, while still supporting click interaction for accessibility.


Describe alternatives you've considered

  • Keeping the current click-only behavior
  • Adding a separate language selection page
  • Showing recently used languages only

These alternatives work but are less convenient than hover-based access.


Additional context

  • Improves usability and faster language switching on desktop
  • Aligns with common UX patterns for global language selectors
