In HTML, the <blockquote> element is used to represent a section of quoted content within a web page. It is typically used to visually distinguish quoted text from the surrounding text and to indicate that the content is a quotation from another source.
Here's an example of using the <blockquote> element:
<blockquote>
<p>This is a quoted text.</p>
<footer>Author of the quote</footer>
</blockquote>
In the example above, the <blockquote> element is used to enclose the quoted content, which is represented by the <p> element. The <footer> element is often used within the <blockquote> to provide attribution to the author or the source of the quote.
The <blockquote> element helps to visually set apart the quoted content, such as a passage from a book, a statement, or an excerpt from an article. By default, the browser may apply indentation or other styles to the <blockquote> element, making it visually distinct from the surrounding text.
It's important to note that the <blockquote> element is primarily used for visual styling purposes, rather than indicating a specific semantic meaning. If you want to indicate a quotation with semantic meaning, you can use the <q> (inline quotation) or <cite> (citation) elements in combination with appropriate attributes.
<p>This is an <q>inline quotation</q> from a source.</p>
<p><q>This is a block quotation.</q> - <cite>Author of the quote</cite></p>
The <q> element is used for inline quotations, and the <cite> element is used to indicate the source or author of the quotation.

The HTML <address> tag defines the contact information for the author/owner of a document or an article.
The contact information can be an email address, URL, physical address, phone number, social media handle, etc.
The text in the <address> element usually renders in italic, and browsers will always add a line break before and after the <address> element.
