# New Liquid multiline tags

We’ve added two new Liquid theme tags.

`liquid`

The `liquid` theme tag simplifies theme code. Developers can now write multi-line tags and output expressions within one set of delimiters. This reduces the requirement to open and close multiple sets of delimiters when creating variables and conditions, or executing blocks of code. Learn more about the `liquid` tag in our [developer documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/themes/liquid/reference/tags/theme-tags#liquid).

`echo`

The `echo` theme tag works inside the new `liquid` tag to output an expression, or Liquid object, in the rendered HTML. Filters can also be applied to expressions using the `echo` tag. Learn more about the `echo` tag in our [developer documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/themes/liquid/reference/tags/theme-tags#echo).
