Apologies for hijacking this thread, but as someone who specifies, rather than actually codes, it seems an appropriate place to ask. A simple example may help.
A screen reader user is editing an HTML file where we have the line:
<h1>Where is the h1 Code used?</h1>
Visually the Codes are in red with the text in black.
But I want VoiceOver to change speech in some way when it encounters a Code, preferably to a higher or lower pitch.
Is this currently possible?
George.

Subject: Re: Set VoiceOver iOS accent/pronunciation language for entire application?
If you want it on the whole app, set accessibilityLabel on UIApplication sharedApplication
It would be a good enhancement to be able to set it on a common ancestor and have it apply to the whole group like it does on the web (it does not do this on iOS right now)
Returns the language code that the element's label, value and hint should be spoken in.
If no language is set, the user's language is used.
The format for the language code should follow Internet BCP 47 for language tags.
For example, en-US specifies U.S. English.
@property (nullable,
nonatomic, strong)
NSString *accessibilityLanguage;

Hi, I’m trying to get language programmatically applied so that VoiceOver will speak the text in the appropriate accent with proper pronunciation.
I’ve found that I can set label text to speak in different languages based on UIAccessibilitySpeechAttributeLanguage. I filed a bug that this does not work with UIButton.
This has to be done on each individual label but I’m trying to find out if this can be done for the entire application or a whole page or view rather than just parts of the view.
Can different views have with many labels have different languages set?
Is there any way to do this using text rather than attributed text?
Thanks!
