Italt

Italt is a term with no single fixed meaning, used in different domains to denote different things. In general, it is encountered as a lowercase noun or as an acronym, and its interpretation depends on context.

In computing and digital typography, italt often appears as a shorthand placeholder or label for italic styling or as a compact identifier in sample code. In documentation, ITALT-like tokens may indicate italic emphasis in markup languages where explicit style tags are unavailable.

In branding and organizations, Italt is used as a proper name for various small entities, including design studios, startups, or project teams. Because these uses are independent, there is no common ownership or standard definition.

Etymology and usage notes: The form Italt likely derives from the word italic or from a truncation of Italian-related terms, but there is no authoritative etymology. The term is polysemous and appears across different languages and domains.
