Chrome suggests translation on opening the page, or you can right-click,
then select "Translate to English" at any time.

Btw, mathematics is the best universal language :).

There are a lot of these sites, and that is an old one - I've visited it many
times!
Also check out the Geometry Junkyard.

I've long thought that POV-Ray ought to, as a raytracer, have an extensive
library of SHAPES.

We have some inbuilt functions that are curiosities - but we ought to have stuff
that we can expand on and build things with.
Implicit, procedural patterns.
Algorithms.
Regular arrangements / spacings in and on other shapes.
Methods for covering surfaces with (addressable) tilings.

That sort of thing.

You are right - there are a lot of similar sites, but not many of them
are well organized and filled enough, lack of structure, good search
system and quality of information makes them almost unusable.

Wolfram alpha works best of all for me, but sometimes it's difficult to
find something even there.

I guess POV-Ray has a large set of entities and powerful enough SDL, but
the last is very specific and stands too far from most popular
languages. I have a difficulties switching from C++/Javascript
to it and this is the only problem I have using it.

Yep, it's universally incomprehensible.

A large part of this site is also in English
For exemple :  <https://www.mathcurve.com/courbes3d.gb/courbes3d.shtml>

Better use together with a 'human' version:
