Therefore you could have a link such as:
<a href=”/news/” aria-label=”read more”>News</a>
Which would be “news” from looking at it, but “read more” from a screen reader.
I think it opens the SC up to too many connotations and different interfaces, I’d rather keep to link-text + context.
[Jason] In your view, would <a href=”/news/” aria-label=”read more news articles”>read more</a> satisfy the current SC? Should it satisfy 2.4.4?
My suggestion yesterday was simply to promote 2.4.9 to Level AA and thereby address the needs of people who are not using ARIA-aware AT. That suggestion doesn’t seem to have gained much support so far, however.
