As it happens, the chapter of a book i'm reading just did that. Here's the explanation: > Quotations from Priscus and other original sources appear in **_this different typeface_** to distinguish them from my own words. And here's an example of usage from some pages later: > A significant pause for explanation and recognition, then Attila's message. > ‘Theodosius is the son of a nobly born father. So am I, Attila, the son of my father the King of the Huns, Mundzuk. I have preserved my noble lineage, but Theodosius has not. Who now is the barbarian, and who the more civilized?’ > The answer is obvious: the bag proves the point. Theodosius, by plotting the assassination of Attila, his superior, his master, has acted like a rebellious slave. **_As a result, Attila declared, he would not absolve Theodoseus from blame unless he handed over the eunuch for punishment._** -- GitHub Notification of comment by r12a Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/i18n-discuss/issues/1#issuecomment-215760891 using your GitHub account
