Addressing

In Spanish the audience can be address in a formal or an informal way depending on the context and text type. The informal tone to address the reader is “tú” in phrases that are simple and natural.

Emphasis

The emphasis in Spanish can be expressed by syntax, for instance, by placing the most important idea or words at the beginning of a sentence or by the use of colon.
Examples:
Que sea abogado no significa nada, porque algunos defienden a personas inocentes y otros a los culpables.
Está lloviendo: no podremos acampar.
