SpeechSynthesisUtterance: mark event

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

Syntax

Use the event name in methods like addEventListener(), or set an event handler property.

addEventListener("mark", (event) => { })

onmark = (event) => { }

You can use the mark event in an addEventListener method:

utterThis.addEventListener("mark", (event) => {
  console.log(`A mark was reached: ${event.name}`);
});

Or use the onmark event handler property:

utterThis.onmark = (event) => {
  console.log(`A mark was reached: ${event.name}`);
};
