CSS voice-stress Property

Description

The voice-stress property manipulates the strength of emphasis, which is normally applied using a combination of pitch change, timing changes, loudness and other acoustic differences. The precise meaning of the values therefore depend on the language being spoken.

The voice-stress property has been deprecated or is no longer in any CSS working groups.
