@rakesh kumar Thanks for the question, To generate a .ssml file with emotions and break time using Azure API, you can use the Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML), which is an XML-based markup language that allows you to fine-tune your text to speech output attributes such as pitch, pronunciation, speaking rate, volume, and more.

For adding emotions, you can use the mstts:express-as element to express emotions like cheerfulness, empathy, and calm.

To add break time or silence between sentences or sentence groups, you can use the break tag. For example, if you want to add a 2-second break, you can use <break time="2000ms"/>.

Here is an example of how you can structure your SSML:

<speak version="1.0" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/10/synthesis" xml:lang="string" xmlns:mstts="https://www.w3.org/2001/mstts"> <voice name="en-GB-LibbyNeural"> I have to think about it. Wait two seconds <break time="2000ms"/> Yes I agree </voice> </speak>
