Meaning

The <ruby> element is used with the <rt> element to create annotations or pronunciation guides for words and phrases.

The base text should be enclosed in a <ruby> element; the annotation, enclosed in an <rt> element, will appear as smaller
text above the base text.

The <rp> element can be used to wrap content to delimit ruby text for browsers that do not support this formatting.

This element was introduced in Internet Explorer 5.0 and is now part of the HTML5 specification.
The <ruby> element must be used in conjunction with the <rt> element; otherwise, it will have no meaning.
