What is the tag menu used for? in style

The HTML <menu> tag works just like <ul>; it creates an
unnumbered (bullet) list. In a style sheet,

menu { font-family: sans-serif }

would specify a font that lists created with <menu> tags
would use.

The <menu> tag, however, is obsolete. The World Wide Web
Consortium (W3C) no longer recommends using it.

It's more likely that you saw the word menu with a period
in front of it, as in:

.menu { font-family: sans-serif }

In this case, menu is just a name that you invoke with a
class attribute (i.e. <p class="menu">. You could name
the class .wxyz and code class="wxyz" just as easily.
