I would like to know if you think that its bad for seo and regarded as spam if i have the same texts in meta descriptions, meta keywords, and descriptions, for two different language tabs.

I have disabled the english language for the store, but there is still the english language tabs in prodcuts, categories description...I guess its because I have the admin language set to english? (I like it like that).. And as its neccesary to put something in english tab as well, i've just put the same text as in the other language...

Do the spiders read the text from both langueage options and see that it is a potential flooding or duplicating or how is this called..?

i'm quite new in this scene! What do i know?...

Thanks for helping

Yes, this affects SEO.
If you use slovenian text, you should just remove english as it is of no use anyway.
