<p><a>Defines</a> an optional string value that provides alternate activation labels for the the current element, separated by commas. See related <pref>aria-label</pref> and <pref>aria-labelledby</pref>.</p>
<p>The purpose of <pref>aria-labelsynonyms</pref> is to allow a user of assistive technology such as voice activation software to activate controls through multiple names. Other uses may include "type-ahead" in a keyboard access utility. For example, a button that closes a dialog may be labeled "close" for a screen reader, but sighted user of voice activation may say "tap x" or "tap dismiss."</p>
<pre class="example highlight">
&lt;button aria-label="close" <strong>aria-labelsynonyms="dismiss, clear, x"</strong>&gt;❎&lt;/button&gt;
</pre>
<p>Authors MUST NOT specify <code>aria-labelsynonyms</code> on an element that has no accessible name as determined by the <a href="#textalternativecomputation">accessible name and description computation</a>.</p>
