What exactly is {ARTICLESEOLINKURL}? How did you impliment it? I don't see why the article not being in english means you should change the URL. It doesn't make any sense to have a URL in english when the content isn't, and it'll only be ignored or penalized by search engines as irrelivant.

The standard of url will show Article title in url address, but due my article language is not English then it will convert the title to codes English : xxxxx.xxx/kb/good-3.html My language : xxxxx.xxx/kb/ouuouosup3u-3.html To overcome this issue I add a field through admin Panel in Article so I can add English Language for individual Article as attached Pic I use it in the SEO but it does not work

Adding a field doesn't "overcome" anything, because you can't make it use the value of that field in any way in the URL. Accented characters in URLs aren't even handled by any browser other than Opera last time I checked, so if you accomplished what you want to then you'd break your site for 99% of viewers.
