Semantics
A row of cells in a tabular container.
Additional info from the ARIA specification
Rows contain cell or gridcell elements, and thus serve to organize a table, grid, or treegrid.
While the row role can be used in a table, grid, or treegrid, the semantics of aria-expanded, aria-posinset, aria-setsize, and aria-level are only applicable to the hierarchical structure of an interactive tree grid. Therefore, authors MUST NOT apply aria-expanded, aria-posinset, aria-setsize, and aria-level to a row that descends from a table or grid, and user agents SHOULD NOT expose any of these four properties to assistive technologies unless the row descends from a treegrid.
Authors MUST ensure elements with role row are accessibility children of an element with the role table, grid, rowgroup, or treegrid.
