HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language. It is a web language that your browser interprets. It is one of the languages that allow you to make layouts for web pages. There have been probably many layouts you have looked at on the web that were constructed in HTML.
All HTML tags have a start and finish. It goes with the saying "all things have an ending." An example of this:
<font>Text here</font>
</font> ends the font tag, the only one you really won't have to end is an image tag and hr tag.
I keep using this word tag, but what is it really? A tag is a line of code that changes the properties of an object. The font code above is a tag. It is changing the properties of the font within the tag.
All tags are ended with a slash. The format:
< We are forming a tag.
/ Ending a tag
tag name the tags name (ex. font)
> The ending of the tag
