What is it?
This property specifies a pause to be inserted before speaking an element's content. The pause is inserted between the element's content and any 'cue-before' or 'cue-after' content.

Allowed Values
inherit
[CSS2|CSS2.1]
Type: Explicit

[time]
[CSS2|CSS2.1]
Type: Explicit

[percentage]
[CSS2|CSS2.1]
Type: Calculated
Description:
Refers to the inverse of the value of the 'speech-rate' property. (eg: a value of 100% for 'pause-before' with a 'speech-rate' of 60 words per minute would create a pause of 1 second.)
