Hello all, 
Do you know if there is a means to specifiy language changes in a alt attribute or in the title of a link?
For example, if the alt of an image is : "Welcome to the Musée du Louvre"
how can I specify that "musée du louvre" is in French? 

Second, if I have a link title or an alt attribute containing an abbreviation how can I expand this abbreviation? 
Example: alt="UNO Homepage" title="UNO Homepage" 
How can I specify that UNO means United Nations Organisation ? 

If there is no means to specify language changes or abbreviations in alt or titles, how can I meet checkpoints 14.1 and 14.2? 

Thank you in advance for any ideas.

Best regards
Sylvie
