How to embed audio in html with only a start/stop button?

I'm working on making a digital phrasebook cataloging medical terminology in various languages to be used in humanitarian work. My goal is to make this html based, so I can zip the main directory together to be downloaded and used by users on their computer and to be put online, and would like to embed audio clips for proper pronunciation.

Looking into embedding audio all I have been able to find are embeds with large console controllers. I found one page that said I could insert the parameter controller="stopbutton", but this did not work for me.

Could someone type a code example here that will work for embedding audio with only a small icon to start/stop the audio?

Also, recommendations on what file format to use and which plugins to link to? (how do you insert the code to direct someone to the correct plugin if they do not have it?)

Thanks!
