Description of the new feature/enhancement

command palette should support both setting language and English search

Current behaviour

when language is English , type toggle and it works perfectly
image
when language is Chinese, type toggle and I get nothing:
image
I have to type 切换 to get a match
image
However, toggle is a verb, so the translation is relatively uniform. When I want to search by nouns, there may be several translations of a term, so I have to try them all

Expected behavior

VSCode's command palette works as expected, supporting both setting language and English search and displaying them
