    SpeechSynthesis.paused

    This is an experimental technology
    Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for usage in various browsers. Also note that the syntax and behavior of an experimental technology is subject to change in future versions of browsers as the specification changes.

    The paused read-only property of the SpeechSynthesis interface is a Boolean that returns true if the SpeechSynthesis object is in a paused state, or false if not.

    It can be set to paused even if nothing is currently being spoken through it. If utterances are then added to the utterance queue, they will not be spoken until the SpeechSynthesis object is unpaused, using SpeechSynthesis.resume().

    Syntax

    var amIPaused = speechSynthesisInstance.paused;

    Value

    A Boolean.

    Examples

    var synth = window.speechSynthesis;

synth.pause();

var amIPaused = synth.paused; // will return true
