Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Benjamin Thiers Foreign Language Accessibility Detector

No. Language detection is performed locally using a bundled statistical library and dictionaries. No content is sent anywhere.

No. It is a purely semantic HTML attribute used by assistive technologies (screen readers, text-to-speech). It has no visual effect for sighted visitors.

Passages already saved as <span lang="xx"> directly in a post's content remain in that content after deactivation or uninstallation, since they were written into the post content itself. Passages managed for page-builder content (stored as post meta) will simply stop being applied once the plugin is deactivated.

Yes, using the custom glossary (term -> language). Terms added there always take priority over automatic detection.
