Difference between “the words to be emphasized” and “the words are emphasized

[Venus.jam]

Hi

what is the difference between “the words to be emphasized” and “the words are emphasized”. Would you please provide some examples?

 

[Venus.jam]

“We can put the words to be emphasised first or last in the sentence”

”the words to be emphasised are joined to the relative clause by is/was”

would you please let me know what the difference is between “words to be emphasised” and “words are emphasised”?
could you please provide some more examples?

With the infinitive, it means "the words that you intend to emphasize" (AmE spelling). With "are", you're describing an existing state. For example, in this sentence, the words "in" and "this" are emphasized by a bold-face font.

Perfect explanation as always! :up:

Why are there two similar threads?! I've just answered in the other one.

(Anyway, GoesStation gives a very good answer here.)

While you were writing that, jutfrank, I was writing a Thread closed post for the other one.

However, the OP thanked you for yours.
