As chaot and BetterRed noted about semantics earlier in the thread, I have started using <i> and <b> for things such as foreign language, book titles, and such. Then I want the <em> and <strong> when showing, for example, someone shouting their dialog. This is really more for ease of editing the code, rather than concern about TTS, although that does enter into it a bit (can't hurt, might help).
But you do know that you can swap how <i> & <em> work via CSS. So technically there is no difference. <b> & <strong> also are not different.
