118118 < p > CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is a language that describes the rendering of markup documents
119119 (e.g. HTML, XML) on various supports, such as screen, paper, speech, etc. The Speech module
120120 defines aural CSS properties that enable authors to declaratively control the rendering of
121- documents via speech synthesis, and using optional audio cues. The feature set exposed by this
122- specification is designed to match the model described by the Speech Synthesis Markup Language
