xml:lang="zxx" <p>Here is a list of part numbers: <span xml:lang="zxx">9RUI34 8XOS12 3TYY85</span>.</p>

Undetermined: xml:lang="und"
However you should only tag text as undetermined if you can’t just leave it as is. In practice, this means you should only use this markup if the undetermined text is embedded in content that has already been labeled for language in some way.
