italic
Emphasis through slant
Italic refers to a style of type that slants to the right, used for emphasis, titles, foreign words, or to set text apart: The journal requires titles in italic.
As a noun, usually pluralized: Set the book title in italics.
The adjective italicized describes text rendered this way.
To italicize is to apply this formatting. (Capitalized Italic relates to ancient Italy or its peoples.)
