How do I show that a singular word is louder than any other in a sentence when writing it?
I know that when a word is capitalized it expresses yelling.
What about text showing someone is talking and emphasizing a particular word, but he clearly isn't yelling the word out?
How is a "non-yelling" emphasis shown in text?

I didn't take the test yesterday. (Somebody else did.)
I didn't take the test yesterday. (I did not take it.)
I didn't take the test yesterday. (I did something else with it.)
I didn't take the test yesterday. (I took a different one.)
I didn't take the test yesterday. (I took something else.)
I didn't take the test yesterday. (I took it some other day.)
As in the examples above, stress is normally transcribed as italics in printed text or underlining in handwriting.
