Similar to, e.g., the single choice set, I think it would be nice if the users could use subscript and superscript in the Task description and Textfield inputs.

Please provide concrete examples (in English) where the use of subscript and superscript would be useful in H5P Mark the Words.

Hi, as part of a course where I use H5P, I wanted to provide the students with a mathematical formula and ask them to mark the terms in the formula that would increase if a change occurred.

The formula I wanted to provide to the students is the ELBO term which includes expectation of random variables so the use of subscripts would be beneficial there. 

Here's a screenshot of the formula from Wikipedia:

You forgot to post the screenshot.

And you did not provide a concrete example of the Mark the Words you want to create...

EDIT.- Sorry, just saw your screenshot in the first of your replies (you posted your reply twice, once with and once without the screenshot!)

From what I can see, it's not just a matter of being able to use sub and superscripts, that formula also uses non-ascii characters. I'm afraid it's not suitable for the H5P Mark the Words activity.
