<div>{{HTMLRef}}</div>
<p><span class="seoSummary">The HTML <strong>Unarticulated Annotation Element</strong> (<strong><code><u></code></strong>) represents a span of inline text which should be rendered in a way that indicates that it has a non-textual annotation.</span> This is rendered by default as a simple solid underline, but may be altered using CSS.</p>
<div class="warning">
<p>This element used to be called the "Underline" element in older versions of HTML, and is still sometimes misused in this way. To underline text, you should instead apply a style that includes the CSS {{cssxref("text-decoration")}} property set to <code>underline</code>.</p>
</div>
<div>{{EmbedInteractiveExample("pages/tabbed/u.html", "tabbed-shorter")}}</div>
<p>See the {{anch("Usage notes")}} section for further details on when it's appropriate to use <code><u></code> and when it isn't.</p>

<p>This element only includes the <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes">global attributes</a>.</p>
<h2 id="Использование">Использование</h2>
<p>Along with other pure styling elements, the original HTML Underline (<code><u></code>) element was deprecated in HTML 4; however, <code><u></code> was restored in HTML 5 with a new, semantic, meaning: to mark text as having some form of non-textual annotation applied.</p>
<div class="note">
<p>Be careful to avoid using the <code><u></code> element with its default styling (of underlined text) in such a way as to be confused with a hyperlink, which is also underlined by default.</p>
</div>
<h3 id="Use_cases">Use cases</h3>
<p>Valid use cases for the <code><u></code> element include annotating spelling errors, applying a {{interwiki("wikipedia", "proper name mark")}} to denote proper names in Chinese text, and other forms of annotation.</p>
<p>You should <em>not</em> use <code><u></code> to simply underline text for presentation purposes, or to denote titles of books.</p>
<h3 id="Other_elements_to_consider_using">Other elements to consider using</h3>
<p>In most cases, you should use an element other than <code><u></code>, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>{{HTMLElement("em")}} to denote stress emphasis</li>
<li>{{HTMLElement("b")}} to draw attention to text</li>
<li>{{HTMLElement("mark")}} to mark key words or phrases</li>
<li>{{HTMLElement("strong")}} to indicate that text has strong importance</li>
<li>{{HTMLElement("cite")}} to mark the titles of books or other publications</li>
<li>{{HTMLElement("i")}} to denote technical terms, transliterations, thoughts, or names of vessels in Western texts</li>
</ul>
<p>To provide textual annotations (as opposed to the non-textual annotations created with <code><u></code>), use the {{HTMLElement("ruby")}} element.</p>
<p>To apply an underlined appearance without any semantic meaning, use the {{cssxref("text-decoration")}} property's value <code>underline</code>.</p>
<h2 id="Примеры">Примеры</h2>
<h3 id="Indicating_a_spelling_error">Indicating a spelling error</h3>
<p>This example uses the <code><u></code> element and some CSS to display a paragraph which includes a misspelled error, with the error indicated in the red wavy underline style which is fairly commonly used for this purpose.</p>
<h4 id="HTML">HTML</h4>
<pre class="brush: html"><p>This paragraph includes a <u class="spelling">wrnogly</u>
spelled word.</p></pre>
<p>In the HTML, we see the use of <code><u></code> with a class, <code>spelling</code>, which is used to indicate the misspelling of the word "wrongly".</p>
<h4 id="CSS">CSS</h4>
<pre class="brush: css">u.spelling {
text-decoration: red wavy underline;
}</pre>
<p>This CSS indicates that when the <code><u></code> element is styled with the class <code>spelling</code>, it should have a red wavy underline underneath its text. This is a common styling for spelling errors. Another common style can be presented using <code>red dashed underline</code>.</p>
<h4 id="Result">Result</h4>
<p>The result should be familiar to anyone who has used any of the more popular word processors available today.</p>
<p>{{EmbedLiveSample("Indicating_a_spelling_error", 650, 80)}}</p>
<h3 id="Avoiding_<u>">Avoiding <u></h3>
<p>Most of the time, you actually don't want to use <code><u></code>. Here are some examples that show what you should do instead in several cases.</p>
<h4 id="Non-semantic_underlines">Non-semantic underlines</h4>
<p>To underline text without implying any semantic meaning, use a {{HTMLElement("span")}} element with the {{cssxref("text-decoration")}} property set to <code>"underline"</code>, as shown below.</p>
<h5 id="HTML_2">HTML</h5>
<pre class="brush: html"><span class="underline">Today's Special</span>
<br>
Chicken Noodle Soup With Carrots</pre>
<h5 id="CSS_2">CSS</h5>
<pre class="brush: css">.underline {
text-decoration: underline;
}</pre>
<h5 id="Result_2">Result</h5>
<p>{{EmbedLiveSample("Non-semantic_underlines", 650, 80)}}</p>
<h4 id="Presenting_a_book_title">Presenting a book title</h4>
<div id="example-unstyled-cite">
<p>Book titles should be presented using the {{HTMLElement("cite")}} element instead of <code><u></code> or even <code><i></code>.</p>
<h5 id="HTML_3">HTML</h5>
<pre class="brush: html"><p>The class read <cite>Moby Dick</cite> in the first term.</p></pre>
<h5 id="Result_with_default_style">Result with default style</h5>
<p>{{EmbedLiveSample("example-unstyled-cite", 650, 80)}}</p>
</div>
<p>Note that the default styling for the <code><cite></code> element renders the text in italics. You can, if you wish, override that using CSS:</p>
<pre class="brush: css">cite {
font-style: normal;
text-decoration: underline;
}</pre>
<h5 id="Result_with_custom_style">Result with custom style</h5>
