    If you want listings in more than one language, you need to add the listing in each language.
    If you want English language places shown to visitors looking at the Italian version, you need to copy the English listing as if it is an Italian listing.

    It is not an opinion, that is how multi-language sites work.
    If you want all listings to be available to all visitors regardless of language, you do not need a multilanguage site, but you just need to allow listings in different languages.

    Just like WP pages are duplicated in other languages, GD listings need to be as well.
