More specifically, by way of example, in one exemplary embodiment of the invention, the TTS [text-to-speech] markup generated by the conversion module can be defined using Speech Synthesis Markup Language(SSML). SSML is a proposed specification being developed via the World Wide Web Consortium(W3C), which can be implemented to control the speech synthesizer. The SSML specification defines XML(Extensible Markup Language) elements for describing how elements of a text string are to be pronounced. For example, SSML defines a "prosody" element to control the pitch, speaking rate and volume of speech output. 1, record 1, English, - Speech%20Synthesis%20Markup%20Language
