You can reload that view by turning on add_missing_from first.
Re-dumping it will show it in the correct format with an additional
FROM entry.
Note: it seems highly likely to me that that view doesn't do what it's
supposed to anyway, and that you ought to change it. What you've got
there is a partially constrained 3-way join using two scans of the
language table ... is that what you meant? But if you want to reload it
with the same behavior it has now, add_missing_from is your friend.
