It means, two or more languages in the same buffer.

Goal: being able to spell and not care about that, the
spellchecker deals with that for you, for one, two,
... languages.

They are not - with Hunspell every word is checked with every
dictionary. So it is a way the opposite of detection.

But it should work for you anyway. Try it if you want multiple
dictionaries.

`guess-language' says they can do it, my code could do it but
was more of a proof-of-concept - well, at the state where
I left it, maybe one could have taken it somewhere. But if
`guess-language' does it, and especially, if Hunspell has
a many times more robust solution, I'm out. Yes, try it if you
want this!
