💡 What: Added hreflang and lang attributes to language switcher links.
🎯 Why: Without these attributes, screen readers may mispronounce foreign language names using the current language's pronunciation profile (e.g., reading "日本語" with an English voice).
📸 Before/After: Visuals are unaffected, this is purely an accessibility change for screen readers.
♿ Accessibility: Improved screen reader pronunciation profiles for language switcher links.


PR created automatically by Jules for task 14632253757205733161 started by @divineforge

Added `hreflang` and `lang` attributes to the language switcher links in the header.
This ensures screen readers correctly switch pronunciation profiles when reading the link text for different languages.
Also recorded this learning in the UX journal.
