It does seem possible to predict the actual result based on the placement of the span tag and the number of characters it contains, for example: When the span content is at the end, the beginning of the sentence is impacted: `<p>Paragraph text with span content at the end<span>?</span></p>` VoiceOver will read out "P aragraph text with content at the end ?" The number of characters in the span element will impact what is read out by VoiceOver. `<p>Paragraph text with span content at the end<span>???</span></p>` VoiceOver will read out "Par agraph text with content at the end ???" When the span content is at the beginning, the end of the sentence is impacted: `<p><span>...</span>Paragraph text with span content at the beginning</p>` VoiceOver will read out "... Paragraph text with span content at the begin ning"
