Syntax
Formal syntax: <time> | none | x-weak | weak | medium | strong | x-strong pause-before: 25ms; pause-before: [value];
Values
- <time>Expresses the pause in absolute time units (seconds and milliseconds, e.g. "+3s", "250ms"). Only non-negative values are allowed.
- noneEquivalent to 0ms (no prosodic break is produced by the speech processor).
- x-weakExpresses the pause by the strength of the prosodic break in speech output. The exact time is implementation-dependent. The values indicate monotonically non-decreasing (conceptually increasing) break strength between elements.
- weakAs above

Example
.class { pause-before: 25ms; }
