I am working on a French/English site and each side has words in the 
other language. I want to make sure that screen readers switch languages 
for those isolated phrases.

Is this the correct syntax for the language declaration
<span lang="fr">je ne sais quoi</span>

Does the language declaration has to be in a span? Is it possible to do
it like this <span class="french">je ne sais quoi</span> and have a
style on an external style sheet link

.french {
lang : fr;
font-style: italic;
}

I tried
lang {
font-style: italic;
}

but it doesn't seem to work.

thanks all,
Sandy
