00:00:05.779 --> 00:00:11.660
in this video we're going to learn how to create description lists using HTML a

2
00:00:11.660 --> 00:00:16.859
description list is a list of terms with their corresponding descriptions or

3
00:00:16.859 --> 00:00:22.380
definitions so let's create a simple description list using a couple of terms

4
00:00:22.380 --> 00:00:26.880
so we're going to use HTML and CSS and we're gonna have a corresponding

5
00:00:26.880 --> 00:00:31.650
description of each of these terms so first of all let's create our first term

6
00:00:31.650 --> 00:00:38.969
so to create a term we need to use the DT tag for term so our first one is

7
00:00:38.969 --> 00:00:43.350
going to be HTML and then we're going to create the description of this term

8
00:00:43.350 --> 00:00:50.570
using the DD tank for description so for example are we gonna say stands for

9
00:00:50.570 --> 00:01:03.000
hypertext markup language so hypertext because it's using links which can be

10
00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:07.860
associated to text as we can click on and it's a markup language because it's

11
00:01:07.860 --> 00:01:13.020
using tags to reference different HTML components and the web browser relies on

12
00:01:13.020 --> 00:01:18.380
those tags to know and recognize each of the HTML elements okay

13
00:01:18.380 --> 00:01:27.750
now let's create another term so our second one is going to be CSS I'm using

14
00:01:27.750 --> 00:01:32.970
again the DT tag putting the text inside the tags and then the description is

15
00:01:32.970 --> 00:01:41.600
going to go between the DD tags and this time we're gonna say stands for

16
00:01:41.600 --> 00:01:49.560
cascading style sheets I'm going to be covering CSS later on when we finish

17
00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:56.159
this chapter in our second chapter okay first regarding description lists very

18
00:01:56.159 --> 00:02:00.990
easy since X so again terms we create them using the DZ tag and descriptions

19
00:02:00.990 --> 00:02:04.490
using the DD tag
