Delay Animation with CSS only

Question

I've got the following code which rotates words with a CSS animation. I'm trying to figure out how to pause the animation on each word, before moving to the next word. I've tried using animation-delay, but that only applies to the start of the animation rather than each item.

How can I pause the animation FOR EACH WORD?

.im {
  float: left;
  margin-right: 0.3em;
}

.im-wrapper {
  display: flex;
  height: 1.1em;
}

.im-items {
  overflow: hidden;
}

.im-item {
  display: block;
  height: 100%;
  color: $primary;
  animation: move 10s infinite;
  animation-delay: 1s;
  white-space: nowrap;
}

@keyframes move {
  0% {
    transform: translateY(0%);
  }

  20% {
    transform: translateY(-100%);
  }

  40% {
    transform: translateY(-200%);
  }

  60% {
    transform: translateY(-300%);
  }

  80% {
    transform: translateY(-400%);
  }

  100% {
    transform: translateY(0%);
  }
}

<div class="hero-top-title">
    <div style="display: inline-block;">
        <div>Hi</div>
    </div>, I'm
    <div style="display: inline-block;">
        <div>A Person</div>
    </div>.
    <br>
    <div class="im">Am I a</div>
    <div class="im-wrapper">
        <div class="im-items">
            <div class="im-item im-item1">Father</div>
            <div class="im-item im-item2">Mother</div>
            <div class="im-item im-item3">Brother</div>
            <div class="im-item im-item4">Sister</div>
            <div class="im-item im-item5">Grandma</div>
        </div>
        <div>?</div>
    </div>
</div>

How can I pause the animation FOR EACH WORD?

Answer 1

Need to keep the same transform of couple of moment then trigger next. Please follow the code below and you will understand what I mean.

.im {
  float: left;
  margin-right: 0.3em;
}

.im-wrapper {
  display: flex;
  height: 1.1em;
}

.im-items {
  overflow: hidden;
}

.im-item {
  display: block;
  height: 100%;
  color: $primary;
  animation: move 10s infinite;
  animation-delay: 1s;
  white-space: nowrap;
}

/* Here is the different */
@keyframes move {
  0% {
    transform: translateY(0%);
  }
  10% {
    transform: translateY(-100%);
  }
  20% {
    transform: translateY(-100%);
  }
  30% {
    transform: translateY(-200%);
  }
  40% {
    transform: translateY(-200%);
  }
  50% {
    transform: translateY(-300%);
  }
  60% {
    transform: translateY(-300%);
  }
  70% {
    transform: translateY(-400%);
  }
  80% {
    transform: translateY(-400%);
  }
  90% {
    transform: translateY(0%);
  }
  100% {
    transform: translateY(0%);
  }
}

<div class="hero-top-title">
    <div style="display: inline-block;">
        <div>Hi</div>
    </div>, I'm
    <div style="display: inline-block;">
        <div>A Person</div>
    </div>.
    <br>
    <div class="im">Am I a</div>
    <div class="im-wrapper">
        <div class="im-items">
            <div class="im-item im-item1">Father</div>
            <div class="im-item im-item2">Mother</div>
            <div class="im-item im-item3">Brother</div>
            <div class="im-item im-item4">Sister</div>
            <div class="im-item im-item5">Grandma</div>
        </div>
        <div>?</div>
    </div>
</div>
