<rt>: The Ruby Text element - HTML | MDN
<rt>: The Ruby Text element
Baseline
Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.
The <rt> HTML element specifies the ruby text component of a ruby annotation, which is used to provide pronunciation, translation, or transliteration information for East Asian typography. The <rt> element must always be contained within a <ruby> element.
Try it
<ruby>
漢 <rp>(</rp><rt>kan</rt><rp>)</rp> 字 <rp>(</rp><rt>ji</rt><rp>)</rp>
</ruby>
ruby {
font-size: 2em;
}
See the article about the <ruby> element for more examples.
Attributes
This element only includes the global attributes.
Examples
Using ruby annotations
This example provides Romaji transliteration for the kanji characters within the <ruby> element:
html
<ruby> 漢 <rt>Kan</rt> 字 <rt>ji</rt> </ruby>
body {
font-size: 22px;
}
