How does one express these constructs in Org format?

@code
@samo
@emph
@def
@var
@i
@url
@key
@kbd

I am skeptical that that would address these issues, but I can't be sure
since I don't know what that does.  Can you please show a hypotherical
example of solvin a problem this way?

For instance, how would you propose to use them to distinguish
between @var, @def and @emph?

They look alike in TeX output.  It is in OTHER formats that they
produce different output.

1. What would that approach look like in the document source?
I can't be sure
