Are you talking about Translation Convention? Where they book-end the English dialogue with the language the characters are "actually" speaking and then switch to English for the audience's benefit?

[(Anonymous)]

Sometimes it can fit I guess?

And sorry I don't understand what "book-end the English dialogue" means.

[(Anonymous)]

By "book-ending" I mean having the characters speak their native language before and after the English portion, like [greeting in Arabic] English dialogue for the audience's benefit [goodbye in Arabic]. To establish that while the actors may be speaking English for the audience, the characters have been speaking Arabic the whole time.

I was asking if you were talking about that, or if you meant like with O-Ren Ishii in Kill Bill where even though she's fluent in Japanese, speaking to a Japanese group, and that portion of the film has been subtitled for a long enough time that the audience is okay with it, she switches to English "Just so you know how serious I am about what I'm saying."

One is a reasonable filming tactic, the other is just silly.
