I have a sheet with a master list of dictionary words, and their language. I then create filter views for each language. Here is the Sanskrit filter view:

enter image description here

First off, notice the row numbers are the row numbers from the master list, so I can't easily tell how many rows there are for Sanskrit.

So how can I show the total count? Ideally I would show the total count perhaps in the header, or maybe just above the header in a stats column spanning all 6 columns, or maybe it just shows the virtual row number along the actual master list row number. Any of these solutions would be fine. How can it be done?

Given the layout of the table in the image, try the following in G1:

=SUBTOTAL(3,A2:A)

SUBTOTAL can perform various aggregations on vertical ranges, but it ignores all rows that have been filtered out; the '3' is telling it to do a 'COUNTA' (i.e. count all values) on the range.
