Bold Italic words are those words which are different in size and style than regular words. As "YOU" is a bold italic word in this sentence. In written language, they are used to emphasize something as we use stress in spoken language. Similarly, it (you) is the subject of this sentence because the rest of the sentence explains it.

You in bold italic is the subject and by using bold italic probably you want to emphasize it.

You is the bold italic word. Any word which will be dark than simple word called bold and Italic always not be written like simple straight word.

In language (English, in this instance) the "you" refers to a subject (plural or singular). A subject is a "one" who is addressed by an-"other" and therefore brought into being by that very address or iteration in context. A "subject" is one who is called and simultaneously called upon to give a response (not necessarily verbal). Grammatically, a subject refers to the dominant noun of a sentence or clause, the noun of prominence if you will. However, linguistically a "subject" is an "I" capable of responding to call within a scene of address and this subject is most often called upon to narrate the self. However, please note, this attempt to narrate the history of oneself inevitably fails since no subject, not even I, remember the entirety of my life. I do not remember being birthed by my mother. My narration is only and always partial. So, a subject is a noun in this example you provided...but it is much deeper than that if you begin to think about who can speak and who is not recognized as capable of speech (perhaps, those who are outcasts or extremely poor and illiterate).

You is the subject in the given sentence, and it is a pronoun (not a noun as suggested by Denis Popov); it is a 'second person' pronoun. The rest of the sentence following "you" is its predicate.
