In the Western world, the standard for highlighting is a neon yellow

(<hilite>, <highlite>, <highlight>). People don't necessarily mark
text much -- if anything, "mark" implies underlining, circling, and
drawing arrows -- but they do highlight.

Highlighting with a yellow highlighter, underlinging, circling or drawing arrow are all different forms of marking, and could all be marked up using the <m> element. It is not restricted to just highlighting, though it may be the default presentation.
