Q

Single quotation marks (‘i’):

  • Often used for quotes within quotes
  • Preferred for dialogue or emphasis in British English instead of double quotes.
  • Used to highlight a term ironically or as a concept

Double Quotation Marks (“I”):

  • Standard for quoting speech or text in American English
  • Used to denote titles of short works (articles, poems, etc.).

An apostrophe inside a word (like don’t or can’t), that’s a contraction, meaning letters have been omitted.

Quotation marks, also known as speech marks or inverted commas, are primarily used to enclose and set off direct quotations, titles of short works (like articles or poems), and words or phrases used in a specific or unusual way. In some cases, quotation marks can be used to express skepticism or sarcasm towards a word or phrase
