{{SVGRef}}
The SVG **`<text>`** element draws a graphics element consisting of text. It's possible to apply a gradient, pattern, clipping path, mask, or filter to `<text>`, like any other SVG graphics element.
If text is included in SVG not inside of a `<text>` element, it is not rendered. This is different than being hidden by default, as setting the {{SVGAttr('display')}} property won't show the text.
> [!NOTE]
> The `<text>` element does not wrap by default, to make this happen it needs to be styled with the {{CSSXRef("white-space")}} CSS property.
## Example
```css hidden
html,
body,
svg {
height: 100%;
}
```
```html
<svg viewBox="0 0 240 80" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<style>
.small {
font: italic 13px sans-serif;
}
.heavy {
font: bold 30px sans-serif;
}
/* Note that the color of the text is set with the *
* fill property, the color property is for HTML only */
.Rrrrr {
font: italic 40px serif;
fill: red;
}
</style>
<text x="20" y="35" class="small">My</text>
<text x="40" y="35" class="heavy">cat</text>
<text x="55" y="55" class="small">is</text>
<text x="65" y="55" class="Rrrrr">Grumpy!</text>
</svg>
```
