RE: where does the lang technique fit in the 2.0 Guidelines?

Guideline 3. Design for ease of comprehension
3.9 Define key terms and provide expansions for abbreviations and acronyms,
which should be identified using appropriate markup.
Note: only the first occurrence of an abbreviation or acronym occurring in a
document need be expanded. Expansion dictionaries, for instance in metadata,
may be provided as an alternative to an expansion in the text of a document.

WCAG 1.0 contains Guideline 4: Clarify natural language usage. Its
checkpoints cover identifying the natural language of text in a document and
expanding abbreviations and acronyms. Where do these items fit in WCAG 2.0?
Are they techniques for presenting the content auditorily (Guideline 1)?
