    HTML was developed in 1993. This was the year when Tim Berners-Lee, a British scientist, created the first version of HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) while working at CERN. HTML is a standard markup language used for creating web pages and is the backbone of the World Wide Web. It allows the structuring of content on web pages by using tags and elements. Since its inception, HTML has evolved and gone through several versions, with HTML5 being the latest version as of now.

    Explanation
    The correct syntax is:
    <p>I didn’t say <span> he stole the money.</span></p>

    This is the correct syntax because it follows the HTML tag structure. The <p> tag is used to define a paragraph, and the <span> tag is used to define a section of text within that paragraph. The closing tags are also used correctly to close each tag in the correct order.
