I think, Markup refers to the sequence of characters or other symbols that you insert at certain places in a text or word processing file to indicate how the file should look when it is printed or displayed or to describe the document's logical structure.

Markup languages are designed for the processing, definition and presentation of text. The language specifies code for formatting, both the layout and style, within a text file. The code used to specify the formatting are called tags.

Good day! A markup language is a system that uses tags to define elements in its document. It is readable files that contain standard words rather than typical programming syntax. It also gives instruction for its layout on the page especially for electronic transmission and display.

Markup languages are the language of the web. Most markup languages are human readable because the annotations are written in a way to distinguish them from the text. For example, with HTML, XML, and XHTML, the markup tags are < and >. Any text that appears within one of those characters is considered part of the markup language and not part of the annotated text.
