Details:

Our Texinfo manual uses the term _"roff languages"_ (plural) instead of
_"[the] roff language"_ (referring to a specific entity).

The former wording is misleading and inconsistent with docs that (correctly)
refer to Roff as a solitary programming language, albeit one that's been
extended several times by various implementations.
