Final Phrase

---

Wrapping up what we've seen from the chapter, we've gathered some ammunition for the argument of using <strong> and <em> over their presentational brethren, <b> and <i>. We've also seen how when using bold or italic for strictly presentational reasons, CSS is the way to go.

We talked about the other phrase elements as well, beginning with how the <cite> element can be used for people and publications—proving further the power of structural markup for both presentation and potential data parsing.

We also demonstrated how we can provide a little simple accessibility by marking up abbreviations and acronyms with their respective tags—with extra presentational and aural directives to reinforce the definitions. And lastly we've covered all the remaining phrase elements, and while each may have a default styling that is different from normal text, we can easily create simple, quick CSS rules that define our own styles for each of these elements that may appear throughout a page or entire site.
