How do you selectively BOLD output array elements from three arrays?

My code has only one output line. I am creating a madlib php program

and I want my nouns to be in bold, my verbs to be italicized, and my

adjectives to be underlined. Where would I implement this? Thanks.

 

Here is my code:

 

$counter=0;
$nounCounter=0;
$verbCounter=0;
$adjCounter=0;
$newSentArray = $sentArray; // copy $sentArray
while ( $counter < count($sentArray)) // loop over words in array
{
     if($sentArray[$counter] == "NOUN" or $sentArray[$counter] == "NOUN." or $sentArray[$counter] == "NOUN!")
     {
         // replace current word with noun
         $newSentArray[$counter] = $nounArray[$nounCounter];
         $nounCounter++; // increment noun, so next noun in used for replacement
     }
        

    elseif($sentArray[$counter] == "VERB" or $sentArray[$counter] == "VERB." or $sentArray[$counter] == "VERB!")
    {
         // replace current word with verb
         $newSentArray[$counter] = $verbArray[$verbCounter];
         $verbCounter++; // increment verb, so next verb in used for replacement
    }

    elseif($sentArray[$counter] == "ADJECTIVE" or $sentArray[$counter] == "ADJECTIVE." or $sentArray[$counter] ==  

   "ADJECTIVE!")
    {
         // replace current word with adjective
         $newSentArray[$counter] = $adjArray[$adjCounter];
         $adjCounter++; // increment adjective, so next adjective in used for replacement
    }
        
     $counter++;
}

// implode words array into a string
echo implode(' ', $newSentArray);
