How do we define the start of a term in a definition list in HTML?



The HTML <dt> tag is used to define the start of a term in a definition list. A definition list is similar to other lists but in a definition list, each list item contains two entries; a term and a description.

Example

You can try to run the following code to define the start of a term in a definition list using the <dt> tag −

<!DOCTYPE html> <html>    <head>       <title>HTML dt Tag</title>    </head>    <body>       <dl>          <dt>Definition List</dt>          <dd>A list of terms and their definitions/descriptions.</dd>          <dt>JAVA</dt>          <dd>Tutorial on JAVA Programming Language.</dd>          <dt>Android</dt>          <dd>Tutorial on Android Operating System.</dd>       </dl>    </body> </html>
