    Don’t declare a language for the entire page if it doesn’t make sense. Instead, use a HTML lang attribute for each div or span or what have you.

    It’s rare for sites to use detailed language annotations (and rarer still for them to be consistent and accurate) but I believe this would constitute best current practice.
