That's fine for an actual language, but what happens if it is a fictional language used in the book. I don't see this technique working for it.

Example: Tolkien's Middle-Earth books ("Lord of the Rings", "The Hobbit", "The Silmarillion", etc) uses several fictional languages.

What would be the best way of displaying them?

If I use no tags, then how do I convey to the reader that the language has changed?
