Hi.
I suspected as much but wanted to verify the behavior before replying to you.
It appears as though Emacspeak basically follows whatever is reported as a
paragraph by the editor. The way to verify this is to use Emacs’s own
shortcut keys for moving between paragraphs. Try M-{ and M-} to move between
paragraphs and you will see what I am talking about.
I suspect that EWW defines paragraphs as specified by the underlying HTML
rather than the actual visual layout on the screen.
I hope this helps.
Vic
