a markup language describes a structure (how is the thing supposed to be displayed)

A markup language does not define how something is to be displayed, that's what a styling language is for (usually CSS). A markup language semantically defines what certain parts of the created document are.

I'm the idiot who searches stack for code and copies and pastes it into the project so no one should listen to me anyway.
