Make the text one size larger than the regular font:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Basic Tutorial Website(oldtoolbag.com)</title> </head> <body> <p> This is the first sentence. <big>This whole sentence is in bigger letters.</big> </p> (CSS version) <p> This is the first sentence. <span style="font-size:1.2em>This whole sentence is in bigger letters.</span> </p> </body> </html>Test and see ‹/›
