+<div class="section-content"><p>Use the <a href="../global_attributes/title"><code>title</code> attribute</a> on an <code>embed</code> element to label its content so that people navigating with assistive technology such as a screen reader can understand what it contains. The title's value should concisely describe the embedded content. Without a title, they may not be able to determine what its embedded content is. This context shift can be confusing and time-consuming, especially if the <code>embed</code> element contains interactive content like video or audio.</p></div>
