					<td><p>Values for <span class="replaceable">time</span> are floating-point numbers
followed by either the <span class="literal">ms</span> (milliseconds) or
<span class="literal">s</span> (seconds) unit identifier. These settings are
therefore absolute durations for pauses. Values for
<span class="replaceable">percentage</span> are inversely proportional to
the words-per-minute values of the <span class="literal">speech-rate</span>
attribute setting. Because the <span class="literal">speech-rate</span>
controls how long it takes to speak a single word (on average), a
<span class="literal">pause</span> setting of <span class="literal">100%</span> means
that a pause has the same duration as a single word; a setting of
<span class="literal">50</span>% would be a pause of one-half the duration of
speaking a single word.
