I would like to add user role which can add taxonomies only for specific language. I was able to setup permission for post type but can't find how to setup it for taxonomies. Is it possible to do, so user can add category only for specific language?

Hello,

There isn't such kind of built-in feature within Toolset plugins, see our document:
https://toolset.com/course-lesson/setting-access-control/#taxonomy

There isn't privilege for adding terms.

As a workaround, you can try with Toolset Forms plugin, for example:
1) Create a post form for creating posts in frontend
https://toolset.com/home/cred/
2) In above post form, display the category field with option "Let visitors create new terms for this taxonomy" enabled, see my screenshot new-term.JPG
3) Create a custom user role

4) Display the post form of step 1 only for the specific user role of step 3)
