assistive technologies present names differently from descriptions.
Assistive technologies present names differently from descriptions.
For instance, screen readers typically announce the name and role of an element first, e.g., a button named <q>Mute Conversation</q>could be spoken as <q>Mute Conversation button</q>.
If an element has a state, it could be announced either before or after the name and role; after name and role is the typical default.
For example, a switch button named <q>Mute Conversation</q> in the <q>off</q> state could be announced as <q>Mute Conversation switch button off</q>.
