In this chapter we will go through the <blockquote>,<q>, <abbr>, <address>, <cite>, and <bdo> HTML elements
The HTML <blockquote>
element defines a section that
is quoted from another source.
Browsers usually indent <blockquote>
elements.
<p>Here is a quote from WWF's website:</p>
<blockquote cite="https://w3resource.net/">
For 50 years, WWF has been protecting the future of nature.
The world's
leading conservation organization,
WWF works in 100 countries and is
supported by
1.2 million members in the United States and
close to 5
million globally.
</blockquote>
The HTML <q>
tag defines a short quotation.
Browsers normally insert quotation marks around the quotation.
<p>WWF's goal is to: <q>Build a future where people live in harmony with
nature.</q></p>
The HTML <abbr>
tag defines an abbreviation or an acronym, like "HTML",
"CSS", "Mr.",
"Dr.", "ASAP", "ATM".
Marking abbreviations can give useful information to browsers, translation systems and search-engines.
<p>The <abbr title="World Health Organization">WHO</abbr> was founded in
1948.</p>
The HTML <address>
tag defines the contact information for the author/owner of a document
or an article.
The contact information can be an email address, URL, physical address, phone number, social media handle, etc.
The text in the <address>
element usually renders in italic,
and browsers will
always add a line break before and after the <address>
element.
<address>

</address>
The HTML <cite>
tag defines the title of a
creative work (e.g. a book, a poem, a song, a movie, a painting, a sculpture, etc.).
The text in the <cite>
element usually renders in italic.
<p><cite>The Scream</cite> by Edvard Munch. Painted in 1893.</p>
BDO stands for Bi-Directional Override.
The HTML <bdo>
tag is used to override
the current text direction:
<bdo dir="rtl">This text will be written from right to left</bdo>
Use an HTML element to add quotation marks around the letters "cool".
