SpeechSynthesisUtterance: mark event

This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

The mark event of the Web Speech API SpeechSynthesisUtterance object is fired when the spoken utterance reaches a named SSML "mark" tag.

Examples

You can use the mark event in an addEventListener method:

utterThis.addEventListener('mark', function(event) { 
  console.log('A mark was reached: ' + event.name);
});

Or use the onmark event handler property:

utterThis.onmark = function(event) {
  console.log('A mark was reached: ' + event.name);
}
