A dropdown menu will open, where you can choose the length of the pause. It’ll look like this: We are speaking, and now we'll have a break
< break strength="weak" />here.
*Next to that one, we have the emphasis button, to use this one, simply write your text, highlight the text that we want to emphasize, and click the emphasis button.
It’ll look like this: We are going to emphasize < emphasis level="strong"> here .

When I did my initial test sample, the output was spoken a bit too fast. Do you have the capability to slow down the audio output speed ?
Yes, you have 2 options
1) Modify the speed of the audio before creating (Advanced options -> Choose Voice Speed, 1 is the default). Speaking rate/speed, in the range [0.25, 4.0]. 1.0 is the normal native speed supported by the specific voice. 2.0 is twice as fast, and 0.5 is half as fast.
2) you can use our SSML editor https://www.getwoord.com/ssml-editor to add pauses or modify the speed using SSML tags. SSML API support is only available for enterprise customers (we could enable for you if necessary).
