2.4.6 Headings and Labels
Headings are descriptive of the content that they contain, form labels clearly describe what information is required, and buttons inform the user what will happen when they’re pressed.
2.4.7 Focus Visible
There’s visible keyboard focus styling to indicate which element you’re currently focused on.
2.4.8 Location
The user is clearly informed where they are in a set of pages.
2.4.9 Link Purpose (Link Only)
It is clear where a link will take you from the link text alone, without having to read the text around it.

Headings are used to group distinct sections on a page.

There’s a lang attribute on the <html> element that matches the language of the page.

Jargon and figurative language is avoided, or, where not it’s possible, the words are defined or clarified the first time they’re used on a page.

Acronyms and shortened words are avoided; where not that’s possible, a definition are provided on each page they’re used.
