element with a <dfn>
element nested inside of it.
We do this because we are defining a term and the <dfn>
element is used for the defining instance of a term.
About the <dt>
Element
The <dt>
element represents the term, or name, part of a term-description group in a description list.
You can have multiple <dt>
elements for each <dd>
element.
You can also have multiple <dd>
elements for each term too (if the same term matches multiple descriptions).
