display a language followed by a message. Like "English: Hello" with extensive HTML marking
Code equivalent to https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Description with only 3 inputs
Inputs:
  1) text - text to display
  2) textLang - language code for the above text
  3) inline - Optional, default is false. When set to true, forces the template to be displayed 
     inline, so that it does not break the current paragraph (that makes possible to put several 
	 descriptions side by side on a single line)
