html is a mark-up language and those are the markings, describing every bit of content

Because there must be a tag to indicate the start and a tag to indicate the end. If there wasn't any end tags, the browser wouldn't know when to stop running the code. example: If you want to make a text like this: HELLO world!, you must use the <big> hello</big> tags. If you use only the start tag <big> this is how the sentence will be: HELLO WORLD! It means the browser won't have a limit to execute the tag.
