To be honest, I hate talking about them. Text Features To be honest, I hate talking about them.

Headings & Subheadings SPORTS TEAMS I DON’T LIKE Los Angeles Lakers The Lakers seem to always eliminate the Utah Jazz from the playoffs. Also, the players on their team are pompous and arrogant (they pontificate). Kansas State I am jealous they have such a great football program compared to Kansas but just like the Utes, they steal their slogans from other schools. New York Yankees Because of the MLB ill-conceived collective bargaining agreement, the Yankees can nearly spend their way to the world series every year.

Annotations a critical or explanatory note or body of notes added to a text. Annotation

Italics & Bolded Words Italics are used to refer to the word itself and not the actual thing that the word represents. I don’t know how to spell the word regardless unless I use spell checker. Bolded words are used to show importance. Canines are dogs.
