Link to issue number:

Perhaps #4247 can be closed?

Prior work: #11436

Summary of the issue:

'mark' elements were being reported as "marked content".
This is long. Additionally, the standard visual representation of mark is a yellow background, as if the text has been highlighted.
Arguably, "highlighted" is a more common phrase in English.
It is also more specific to this visual representation.
The more generaral "marked" content could mean many different kinds of markings with varied semantics.
With the introduction of "role-description", less common usages of mark can be achived.

Description of how this pull request fixes the issue:

Use "highlight" instead of "marked content" for speech.
Use "hlght" instead of "mrkd" for braille

Marked (highlight) isn't announced in focus mode (as shown by the system test). I'll consider whether this is appropriate next.

No @cary-rowen, this is specifically about the text used when reporting role_mark.
