--- Comment #29 from Heiko Tietze <[email protected]> ---
Some background on the language tag are here [1]. The point is that complex
layouts like Korean require special glyphs and RTL fonts have a different
reading direction, for example. 

That's not the way to distinguish between Gaelic and English, of course, where
you have to define explicitly what language to use. You can do this for the
whole paragraph or just characters. Create dedicated styles for the languages
you need.

No idea what causes the "erratic behavior" on auto detection. The reported
issue is also not easy to reproduce. And more generally, I see no way to
reliably detect the correct language.
