My suggestion would be to create different translations for the pages and these will be automatically shown to the user based on their selected language. See https://docs.mendix.com/howto6/translate-your-app-content

If it really needs to be on 1 language page then you’ll need to make sure that you can access the user language object from the system module on the page and use the conditional visibility options. A simple example would be a dataview of the userlanguage object containing 2 datagrids with different captions for different languages and set the visibilty option based on an expression like $currentObject/language = ‘en_US’ e.g.
