That's things like <abbr> and <acronym> tags for abbreviations and acronyms respectively, tables for tabular data and lists for list data, quote tags for quotations, etc. What you mention does have some merit to it though, as microformats are an idea to use the class attribute to classify data in certain ways, like <span class="date"> or <span class="author"> etc, although I'm not sure how well these work!
