Re: AAA SC for coga

For the plain language SC  issues/41
<https://github.com/w3c/wcag21/issues/41>

We could possibly leverage the language at the front of 4.1.1 Where it says
"In content implemented using markup languages, "

Perhaps we could say :"In content implemented using the English language"

Or

"In content implemented using latin based languages"

Or some other finite group of languages to which these "rules" are known to
be effective
​.

I'm not a linguist and I don't know if these rules are actually always
indicated, nor do I know to which languages they could be applied ... but
this might be a way to get the SC into the standard at AAA​


Cheers,
David MacDonald
