As for the <language> metadata ... this book is written in Polish. When I look at another of my books written in english, the tag looks like this
Could anyone give me the comparable abbreviation for Polish, or point me in the direction where I can find it?

Polish is just pl.

It really depends on the actual error in the code. It seems that styling is done directly in some tags. Usually that can be done better in the stylesheet. I strongly recommend to read the tutorial on the
wiki. It will help you to get up to speed and is a quick read.

The <u> tag is not part of the XHTML specs. It might be that it will work, but it is not mandatory. It is safer to use a style in the stylesheet with the attribute 'text-decoration: underline;' and apply that to the text.

No, not per se. Sigil is an ePUB2 editor and HTML5 is not part of ePUB2. The base of ePUB3 is HTML5, however ePUB3 cannot be read on most readers or reading devices. Acceptance is low, so if you do not need it, don't use it.
The latest Sigil version is 0.8.4. It is in transition to ePUB3, but it will take a while. With a plugin, Sigil can export to the ePUB3 format though.
