  Hi, I find your content excellent and thank you very much for contributing to the Chinese language.
  
  If I may make a suggestion, italics is not something you see much in written Chinese and it makes it more difficult to read the characters, so I believe it would be more effective to stick to regular script without italics. The position of the examples on the page make their function already clear anyway. Thanks again and best regards

  Hmm, it always seemed to me that it is more difficult than the Chinese language I have not seen)

  The few times I’ve encountered Chinese text in italics is when it’s taken directly from an older text, is explaining a translation or modification, or it is a quote of someone. But no italics in ancient Chinese writings that I can remember. They use more brackets from what I remember.
