Why is there a way to bold/italicize list of items ? This is an old school English dictionary.
I am wondering if I were to embolden or italicize a list of items separated by comma, should I just stylize the individual items, or also including the commas (and possibly)?
I talked
to Mike, Jason and David. Example 1: Why are they all engaged? What have they been talking about for some length of time?
I talked
to Mike, Jason, and David Example 4: I
talked to
Mike, Jason, and David Example 5: I
kept saying nothing to each other.
If the names are emboldened, cannot the sentences or the conjunction if it is used in Example 1 then why?
I think it will be acceptable in an example, where you’re presumably marking the commas in bold (even though I can’t tell for sure).
Example 3 is my favorite style. Of course, there is no place for a particular phrase to be highlighted under the list and not compiled by default in the list.
As a native English speaker, I would like to go against a bias of my knowledge. There is no bias. Please
remember that I am a writer.
