Feature description

Hello everyone.

Thank you so much for the great app. I love it and I suggested it to my friends.

Every day I use English, Turkish, and German. So I need to switch between three languages. However, it is hard to find in the long list.

On the other hand, they are not alphabetically sorted in English.

It would be great to have a favorite language support in the settings.
So when we open the translate window we can only list:

• Auto
• First Language
• Second Language
• Favorite 1
• Favorite 2
• ...

I have already searched the issues, there was an issue about the "last languages on top". But I think this feature is more suitable.

Thank you all again. Have a nice day.

It would be great to trim all the languages to only a small set, not everyone uses all these languages and the list is very long for switching.

At least, it would be better to sort alpabetically. I am lose while searching my native language 😄
