Definition:

The HTML <cite> tag is used to reference the title of a creative work, such as a book, article, or song, providing proper attribution.

Content inside a <cite> tag is typically rendered in italics, indicating that it refers to a title rather than regular text. This tag plays a critical role in enhancing the semantic value of citations and attributions.

Using `<cite>` correctly improves the clarity of your content and helps maintain proper academic and legal standards in web writing.
