'''XML''' is an acronym for '''extensible markup language'''. It is a compromise between machine language and regular text. It resembles HTML (and can be mixed with HTML in some cases to make XHTML).
It looks like this:
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml">
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<location>
<country>France
<region>Île-de-France
<department>Hauts-de-Seine
<arrondissement>Antony
<canton>Châtenay-Malabry
<university>École Centrale Paris</university>
</canton>
</arrondissement>
</department>
</region>
</country>
</location>
</syntaxhighlight>
The tags are readable by humans with some effort, and machines can parse XML as a data tree. [[Subtitle]] formats are sometimes written in XML.
