* Right-click and choose "Copy Link to Selected Text" from the context menu.
* If the link creation succeeded, the selected text will be briefly highlighted in yellow.
* Paste your link wherever you want to share it.
* Pro-tip: You can set a keyboard shortcut.

For more information, see the Text Fragments specification (https://wicg.github.io/ScrollToTextFragment/) where this feature is described.
