After the update on 3/24/2023 (PC: 1.96.397.1020), almost all items from The Sims 4 Growing Together have **DEBUG** descriptions. Only The Mini Camper Sleeping Bag has a description. I cannot use some gameplay objects in the game, such as treehouse and splash pads. I have all expansion packs, game packs, stuff packs and kits. This issue only affects The Growing Together Expansion Pack. I uninstalled and installed the EA app. How can I fix it?

Other features from The Growing Together Expansion Pack are also affected. No description is visible for old milestones, but they are visible for undiscovered ones.

I can't play - no text on pop-ups.

Thank you!
I've tried the suggestions from the previous posts, but had the strangest experience. I've tried repairing the game via the EA App, which changed my game language to Czech. The problem is - I can't speak Czech, I've never played my game in Czech and I'm a long way from the Czech border.
A household member helped me change the language back through some general Windows thingamajigs (registry or something? He found the file, manually changed the name to en_US, which was my desired language).
The game is still missing bubbles, item names, event tasks, notifications, prompts and UI descriptions from EP13 and I am scared to try repairing the game again since EA App turned out to be very unreliable.
I don't know what to do anymore.

@Hikari38 Please describe exactly what your household member did to change the language back to English, or have him describe it. The issue here is that the text strings are missing or corrupt, and repairing may not have downloaded the correct English-language strings considering the EA App switched you over to Czech.
