Hello, I am a VoiceOver screen reader user. I tested the latest version of safari and VoiceOver to see if the aria-description attribute is supported. VoiceOver does not support the aria-description attribute yet with span tag, so I reported the bug.

If you visit the following site, you will see several fruit buttons, and the regular price and discount price are marked up as class styles.

Since each regular price and discount price are defined as styles, I used the aria-description attribute to make them readable by screen readers, but this attribute is not being read.

I would appreciate it if you could improve the related issues after testing it.
