I believe this would work with the proper application of AXLanguage

I have noticed 2 confusing behaviors regarding the use of Voice over with RTL builds:
- VoiceOver reads "Arabic letter <some sound>" a bunch of times whenever it attempts to read some string from an Arabic build.
It also does the same in a Hebrew build. - When pressing VO + left (arrow key), VO focus is moved to the right (and vice-versa). My Morgan's suggestion, this behavior has been reported: bug 1724032.
Tested with Nightly v92.0a1 from 2021-08-04.

The important part here is to have the text leafs inherit their parents' language.

Release Note Request (optional, but appreciated)
[Why is this notable]: Firefox now supports multiple language content in VoiceOver
[Affects Firefox for Android]: No
[Suggested wording]: Firefox will now support multiple languages in the same document spoken in VoiceOver
[Links (documentation, blog post, etc)]:
