I recommend to read the specification. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/span "The <span> HTML element is a generic inline container for phrasing content, which does not inherently represent anything. It can be used to group elements for styling purposes" The definition of semantic: "relating to meaning in language or logic" So the clear answer is no, span is not a semantic element.
