How to write in bold and italics in Telegram

With Telegram you can use special characters to write a certain text in bold or italic.

• For text in bold type, put two asterisks before and after the text. 

• An example would be: "** This is important !! **". 

• For italic fonts, put two underscores before and after the text.

• For example: "__This is important !! __".

• You can also combine both formats by adding two asterisks and two underscores before and after the text. It doesn't matter whether you put the asterisks or underscores first.

• For example: "** __ This is important! __ **".

Bold: Double * = **hello world**
Italic: Double _ = __ hello world__`
Monospace: Triple ` = ```hello world```
