Quotation marks are used to begin and end direct quotations. Learn how to use quotation marks in a sentence with these examples and best practices.
Can you start sentence with quotation marks?While it is not grammatically incorrect to begin a sentence with a quotation, it is rather difficult to incorporate that quotation smoothly into your own writing if you use it to begin a sentence, and that is a key skill that AP readers and your research writing teachers look for. Quotes should not disrupt the fluidity of your writing.
Do you put quotations after every sentence?You should never have a quotation standing alone as a complete sentence, or, worse, as an incomplete sentence, in your writing. The quotation will seem disconnected from your own thoughts and from the flow of your sentences. Ways to integrate quotations properly into your own sentences, with correct use of punctuation, are explained below.
