Requesting some additional values for speak-as on behalf of the Apple Accessibility Team: duration (default 'duration' treats' ambiguous ##:## treated as mm:ss) values: duration | duration-mmss | duration-hhmm | duration-hhmmss time (##:## assumed to be hh:mm, and ##:##:## assumed to be hh:mm:ss) value: time date (ambiguous ##-## treated as either date-mmdd or date-ddmm, possibly dependent upon locale) values: date | date-mmdd | date-mmdd | date-mmddyy | date-ddmmyy | date-yyyymmdd | more? The purpose is to differentiate ambiguous time and duration formats like "4:18" which might be spoken as any of the following: "four eighteen" (time) "four minutes, eighteen seconds" (duration | duration-mmss) "four hours, eighteen minutes (duration-hhmm) Ambiguous date formats such as "1-12" could be spoken as: "january twelfth" in EN-US (date-mmdd) "december first" in EN-UK (date-ddmm) "doce de deciembre" in ES-ES (date-ddmm) Leading zeroes/zeds should not be necessary in dates if delimited by standard date format punctuation (periods, dashes, etc.) or spaces. Thanks for your consideration. James Craig
