LaTeX Times New Roman for a portion of a ##\rm{\LaTeX}## document

[brotherbobby]

TL;DR Summary

Can a portion of a document in $\rm{\LaTeX}$ be converted into the well known $\verb|Times New Roman|$ font?

I am writing a document (article) in $\rm{\LaTeX}$. Due to easier reading and differentianting a portion of the text from the rest, it is necessary for me to use some other font and I have chosen the $\verb|Times New Roman|$. However, I don't know how to go about it.
Are there any packages? Is there a font code for the Times New Roman font that I'd need to specify for the portion in question?
Many thanks.

Does https://www.overleaf.com/learn/latex/XeLaTeX assist you?

If you are ok with Times, you can simply use

{\fontfamily{ptm}\selectfont
This text is typeset in Times.
}

Thank you at @DrClaude.

So the $\rm{LaTeX}$ font code for the $\verb|Times|$ font is {ptm}. One simply has to know it.

Do you know where can I find a list of fonts I can use in $\rm{LaTeX}$ with the font code?

Thank you @DrClaude. Actually, upon a bit of search, I found an even better catalogue of $\rm{LaTeX}$ fonts online : LaTeX Fonts .
I suppose a huge difference with $\text{MSWord}^{\circledR}$ is that over there I can install fonts on my computer (as .ttf or .otf) and just select them from the drop down menu when I type. In $\rm{\LaTeX}$ however, there's no such thing. If a font you want doesn't exist, you have to do without it.
