Question about Star Trek episodes titles in other languages

I know from visiting the German Memory Alpha site that Star Trek episodes have other titles in other languages. My question is are these titles viewable on the DVD and Blu-ray menus or do they only exist on the broadcast versions of these episodes?

I'm planning on writing a list of every Star Trek story for all languages and I'm trying to decide if I should list foreign language dubs under their foreign names or their original names.

I can't check because I don't own any Star Trek series on physical discs.

Is it possible to change the language of the Blu-ray menus or do the menus depend on the country the Blu-ray was released in?
 
Too lazy to check the blu-rays right now, but the German, region-coded Trek DVDs at least always contained the German episode titles, IIRC.

That said, most “serious” Trek fans I know refer to the episodes by their original titles anyway, so I think depending on what exactly that “list of every story” of yours is going to be, I'd say you could also just ignore them. In some cases episode titles in other languages make for a somewhat interesting tidbit or sidenote, but personally I find them often either forgettable, unnecessarily descriptive or just plain misleading.
