## Description
Hi! While testing the new learn.wordpress.org site, I ran the site through an A11y checker and the test has flagged 3 ARIA issues with the WordPress admin bar.
All three errors are:
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element
Ensures role attribute has an appropriate value for the element
The errors are being flagged for the following three links in the admin bar:
- Search
- My Account
- Language Switcher
Please see image links below:
## Step-by-step reproduction instructions (optional)
Please list the steps needed to reproduce or verify the feedback. For example:
- Go to WordPress.org
- Run the site through an a11y checker. I use the Chrome extension axe DevTools
- Review the results
## Other information (optional)
I am using a MacBook Pro running Monterey 12.6.1
My browser is Chrome Version 126.0.6478.183 (Official Build) (arm64)
Thanks so much!

Thanks for reporting! This would be an issue with WordPress core, and not with a meta environment; so it needs to be handled in the main WordPress trac.
It's already been reported there, and you can follow that conversation in ticket 61795.
