Arguably, UAs ought to be responding to the full language tag, including the writing-system, and not switch to Chinese if it sees `lang="zh-Latn"`. However, even if that were true, I now think it's still be wrong to tag them that way: if we think a a screen reader instead, we wouldn't expect it to switch to a Chinese voice when reading "bopomofo". The document is in English and to be read / listened to by English speakers, and there's no benefit in switching to Chinese phonetics. So I agree with @r12a: these are better seen technical terms used in English that happen to be derived from CJK terms, best left without a language tag. -- GitHub Notification of comment by frivoal Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/3292#issuecomment-611918439 using your GitHub account
