On 7-08-2002 we were talking about "Usage of 'lang' and 'title' attributes".
This is what Nigel Peck wrote:

Well, I wonder if this is the correct way to conform to the WAI 1.0 
Specs, because the result could be confusing and misleading...

How will speech browsers render the title overlap? Is the quick 
switch of the natural language (just for a single word in a span 
element) compatible with current tools for people with disabilities? 
Is it a good programming practice, apart from what specs recommend 
(in abstract)?

These were the questions behind my post, sorry if I didn't explain 
myself better before. :-)
