Anything you put between those sequences will be bold

You can also do it < and i and > at the beginning and then your word and then < and / i and > to make it italic italic

You can also do it < and font color="red" and > at the beginning and then your word and then < and / and font color and > at the end to make it red

Whatever you put between these symbols < > at the beginning is what it will do, such as b for bold, i for italic, u for underline etc.

If you forget the ending section or don't use the / symbol in the ending section everything thereafter will continue to be bold or red or italic, etc. Confusing?
