<speak>
    Here is an example of a speechcon. 
    <say-as interpret-as="interjection">Mystère mystère</say-as>.
</speak>

You must surround each speechcon with a pause. You can use punctuation, such as a period or comma as shown in the example. Other SSML tags also add a pause, such as <break> or <s>.
