Semantics
A contextual popup that displays a description for an element.
Additional info from the ARIA specification
The tooltip typically becomes visible, after a short delay, in response to a mouse hover, or after the accessibility parent receives keyboard focus. The use of a WAI-ARIA tooltip is a supplement to the normal tooltip behavior of the user agent.
