How shall I quote it? Should I use single quotation marks so as to avoid two double quotations together? As the post states, use single quotation marks inside double quotation marks when you have a quotation within a quotation. You are very patient in explaining over and over again. Anyway, thanks for the clear article and for your willingness to respond to everyone.
We recommend the following, but it should be noted that the recommendation to use brackets is incorrect: Is the following statement written correctly?: As states in Keyishian v. One needs to remember.

I have no roots. It appears to us that only Zosia is speaking, therefore this does not seem to be a quotation within a quotation. Your hyphens or dashes also make punctuating with quotation marks awkward. Why do news websites use single quotation marks in their headlines and video descriptions but use double quotation marks in the body of the article?
You make a good observation. The Associated Press Stylebook recommends using single quotation marks in headlines. AP Stylebook is a guide specific for news media and journalists. Based on what I have read above, is this correct? This is a dialogue I am writing, the portion inside the single quotation marks is a direct quote from the book. Without seeing the broader context, it appears you are on the right track. However, writing Me with a colon is not a standard way to write a quotation in formal writing.
We suggest something like the following: Hi, I wanted to know, is it, The clerk sighed. You may use your discretion as the author. If the exact words: It appears to us that in each sentence there is only one speaker; therefore, neither seems to be a quotation within a quotation. There is also an unnecessary hyphen between the words seem and now.
If you are intending to indicate hesitation, a pause, or wavering in an otherwise straightforward sentence, we recommend an ellipsis see Rule 2 of Ellipses. Also, periods always go inside the quotation marks. If our guesses are correct, we recommend the following as possible clarifications:.
Would I have to use single quotation marks? Again, it appears to us that there is only one speaker; therefore, the sentence is not a quotation within a quotation. Only double quotation marks are needed. Commas are not used together with hyphens or dashes. What if the speaker is not quoting someone? For instance, if the sentence is: Use single quotation marks inside double quotation marks. This is a testimony in a court setting. I am not sure how to set off the quotes by the witness.
Hope that makes sense. If the entire testimony is placed within quotation marks, then the portions following I said should be placed within single quotation marks. Imagining the future is a kind of nostalgia. You just use the future to escape the present. It is not clear who is speaking. It seems like one person; therefore, it is not a quotation within a quotation. If that is the case, just use quotation marks at the beginning and end of the quote. On the other hand, a few lines down the author has a similar sentence of dialogue: And I think if I keep the single quotation marks in one instance like this, I probably need to keep them in every instance for the sake of consistency.
Much appreciated, by the way! The capitalization signals proper nouns: We see no need for single quotes. In addition, if the speaker were addressing someone else instead of referring to himself, the punctuation would be: You can call me, Dave.

Yes, always capitalize the first word in a complete quotation, even midsentence or as a quotation within a quotation. Also, use a comma to introduce a direct quotation.
Can someone help with this double and single quote text? It is from a text that I am quoting in a conversation between 2 people. What kind of friends are we? What kind of life is this? So if there is a quote that is inside of a quote in a quote, would you use double quotation marks for the innermost quote?
On the contrary, I think that to deny the wish of these school children to join in reciting this prayer is to deny them the opportunity of sharing in the spiritual heritage of our Nation. For information regarding quotations within quotations within quotations, please see our reply to Ray of August 23, , and our response to Nadia of May 7, Also, for extended quotations, you may want to consider indentation to eliminate the opening and closing set of quotation marks see Rule 8 of Colons.
I am emulating a s author, writing about Morse code. Extra visible space between single and double quotes was not added in the s manuscript, although my word processer and the original manuscript show a little space. Are the commas placed correctly within the single quotes? Hello, when using quotation marks for direct speech which is longer than one sentence, can I use one set of quotation marks at the start of the first sentence and the end of the last sentence?
Or do I need to open and close quotation marks at every sentence? It is for year 5 students, not academic writing at a university level. As long as it is one person speaking, you can use one set of quotation marks. When a new person speaks, another set of quotation marks is used. Blah, blah, blah, and my coach said, Work harder. In my story, I have a character reading from a plaque out loud and adding her own comment. What is written on the plaque is a quote from that person. Do I use single or double quotation marks? And does that quote need to be italicized?
In English I have to quote a character speaking out loud and he says a quote within his speech. Is this citation correct? It looks so weird when I type it out. Do I use a single quotation mark for only the inside part of the quotes as in: How would you read a quote within a quote out loud? Speaking the word quote could be optional but seems unnecessary.
We see no reason to place stupid in quotation marks. Please ensure that your question or comment relates to the topic of the blog post.
