<div>
<h3>lang (as an attribute name)</h3>
<p>
       denotes an attribute whose value
       is a language code for the natural language of the content of
       any element; its value is inherited. This name is reserved
       by virtue of its definition in the XML specification.</p>
</div>

<h4>Notes</h4>
<p>
      Attempting to install the relevant ISO 2- and 3-letter
      codes as the enumerated possible values is probably never
      going to be a realistic possibility.
