            Bug ID: 215609
           Summary: AX: Input fields read accessible name in OS language
                    not HTML language
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari Technology Preview
          Hardware: Macintosh
                OS: macOS 10.15
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Accessibility
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: nurthen at adobe.com
                CC: webkit-bug-importer at group.apple.com

See testcase at https://codepen.io/jnurthen/live/PoNzgdq - note my system is running in US English

    <div lang="fr">
      <button>en français</button>
      <label>Prénom<input type="text"></label>
    </div>

The button reads correctly with the accessible name in French and the role in english
The Static text on the screen reads correctly in French
but the input field reads as "preeenom edit text" (i.e. with Prénom read with the English voice) - the accessible name should be read in the HTML language not the OS language.
