The 'voice-stress' property defined in the CSS3 Speech module is pretty much a direct adaptation of SSML's 'emphasis' element [1]. There is however an significant oversight: the 'voice-stress' property needs a value so that authors can indicate that the emphasis should be the default one produced by the speech synthesizer. This is language- dependent, and not related to document markup, so it is not something that can be defined in the user-agent stylesheet (TTS-generated emphasis typically applies to arbitrary words within sentences). I added the 'auto' value in the latest editors' draft [2], along with an example to clarify the use of 'voice-stress'. Please kindly review. If 'auto' is not a suitable value name, maybe 'default' or 'normal' ? Regards, Daniel [1] http://www.w3.org/TR/speech-synthesis/#S3.2.2 [2] http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-speech/#voice-stress
