I don't think that's grammatical English and would suggest you leave it as is.

Separately, I note that 4.3.2, which defines 'fn:matches-language-range' says:

--
Summary: returns true if the language tag part of $input is a valid language tag according to BCP-47 [BCP-47], and if it matches the language-range expression supplied as $range as specified by the algorithm for "Matching of Language Tags" which is part of BCP-47 [BCP-47]; otherwise, it returns false.
--

It needs to say *which* matching algorithm in BCP47, since there are three! I suggest you say the "basic filtering" algorithm (since you define $range as 'language-range' and not as 'extended-language-range'). This is probably the right choice for rdf:text, although it precluded doing matching using specific subtags (i.e. you can't ask for "all text that has a 'script' of 'Latn'" by using the range "*-Latn").
