Do we need a separate microformat for text which should not be translated, such as "teacher, teacher" in:
but which is not otherwise a component of a microformat? (Or maybe that should just be a style, attribute, or element, in HTML5).The Great Tit, Parus major, has a song that sounds like "teacher, teacher"
