What to Italicize
Like so many rules in the English language, rules for italicization vary. Often italics and underline can be used interchangeably. There are some style guides that prefer the use of underlining over the use of italics (and vice versa).

Here are, though, some rules of what to italicize. However, do keep in mind that for some of these categories below underlining is also possible.

Emphasis: When you want to emphasize a certain word or phrase in a sentence. (She was the only girl in the class who got 100% on the exam.)

Titles of Works: (Please note that we can also underline the following)
Books: (Elements of Style, Harry Potter and the Deadly Hallows, Jane Eyre)
Magazines: (Time magazine, Newsweek, Cosmpolitan)
Newspapers: (USA Today, Wall Street Journal, San Francisco Chronicle)
Plays: (Romeo & Juliet, Waiting for Godot, Uncle Vanya)
Movies: (Batman, Casablanca, Twilight)
Works of Art: (Monet’s Waterlilies, Van Gogh’s Starry Starry Night, Micheangelo’s Mona Lisa)
TV/radio programs: (American Idol, BBC’s Woman’s Hour, The Simpsons)
CD/Album: (Michael Jackson’s Thriller album, Parachutes by Cold Play)

Foreign Words/Technical Terms/Unfamiliar Words: When we are writing a text in one particular language (i.e. English) and want to introduce a foreign word or phrase, we tend to italicize the foreign words. (The word for cat in Spanish is gato.)

Names of Trains, Ships, Aircraft, and Spacecraft: (NASA’s Challenger, QE2)
