Method: RubySpeech::SSML::Break#strength

Defined in:
lib/ruby_speech/ssml/break.rb

#strength ⇒ Symbol

This attribute is used to indicate the strength of the prosodic break in the speech output. The value “none” indicates that no prosodic break boundary should be outputted, which can be used to prevent a prosodic break which the processor would otherwise produce. The other values indicate monotonically non-decreasing (conceptually increasing) break strength between words. The stronger boundaries are typically accompanied by pauses. “x-weak” and “x-strong” are mnemonics for “extra weak” and “extra strong”, respectively.

Returns:

  • (Symbol)
