So, I noticed some layouts have some kind of language.

Like "Lorem Ipsum....."

Like this: http://www.createblog.com/layouts/code.php?id=26883

What does this mean? And I've seen many other designers put that kind of text. o.O

QUOTE
In publishing and graphic design, lorem ipsum is common placeholder text used to demonstrate the graphic elements of a document or visual presentation, such as font, typography, and layout. It is a form of "greeking".

Even though using "lorem ipsum" often arouses curiosity due to its resemblance to classical Latin, it is not intended to have meaning. Where text is visible in a document, people tend to focus on the textual content rather than upon overall presentation, so publishers use lorem ipsum when displaying a typeface or design in order to direct the focus to presentation. "Lorem ipsum" also approximates a typical distribution of letters in English.
