Verbatim means it is typed as you typed it.

If you want the typerwriter font then use \tt. If you merely want to
quote text then use "quote" environment. If you merely want to keep
special symbols to be unchanged use \ as the escape character. If you
only want some part of the text to be verbatim use \verb|what you want|.

Regards.

Kapil.
