In this usage, italics are a way to emphasise key points in a printed text, to identify many types of creative works, to cite foreign words or phrases, or, when quoting a speaker, a way to show which words they stressed. One manual of English usage described italics as "the print equivalent of <a href="/wiki/Underline" class="mw-redirect" title="Underline">underlining</a>"; in other words, underscore in a manuscript directs a typesetter to use italic.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In fonts which do not have true italics, <a href="/wiki/Oblique_type" title="Oblique type">oblique type</a> may be used instead. The difference between true italics and oblique type is that true italics have some letterforms different from the roman type, but in oblique type letters are just slanted without changing the roman type form. </p><p>The name comes from the fact that calligraphy-inspired <a href="/wiki/Typeface" title="Typeface">typefaces</a> were first designed in <a href="/wiki/Italy" title="Italy">Italy</a>,
