<serif>
Serif
Used to mark text that should always appear in a serif font.
Remarks
Ensuring that a text component remains in a serif font is typically used when marking a
physics constant or mathematical variable for an equation, expression, formula, chemical
expression, or reaction.
Emphasis as a Toggle Switch:
The @toggle attribute controls the behavior of this element. When the
value of @toggle is set to “no”, the
emphasized text remains in the serif font, no matter what the surrounding text does. When the value of @toggle is “yes”, if the surrounding text is set to the same
emphasis style, the text within this element will change to another emphasis style, so that the text will always
be typographically distinct from its surroundings. The default @toggle for this element is
“no”, remain serif at all times.
