[SallyMcGrath]

Which module(s) and week(s) does this change affect? Module(s): all Week(s): all

What is the work that needs to be done?

1. Create an unobtrusive speech synthesis vanilla web component
2. Add keyboard shortcut to speak selected

Why is this work important to do?

1. The majority of CYFers are reading in a second language and want pronunciation guides to help them with specific terms they won't hear otherwise.
2. Some CYFers prefer all spoken content over text

Additional context

Mathigon have a subtle click to read out loud button and this seems like a good thing to have on a paragraph level. https://mathigon.org/course/codes/introduction

Hi @jobs-code 👋 😄

Sure, but before you get too deep in the weeds, how about you have a chat in the ticket about what you're proposing?

[jobs-code]

What are the requirements, expectations?

[SallyMcGrath]

So, looking at the ticket, what are your initial thoughts? What is the purpose of the component? In what technology should it be developed? How will you test this? What existing components are on the codebase that might inform you?
