Discussion
Scenario: You are a medical office manager and
have recently hired a new employee. Using the
format of your choice (i.e., report, business letter, or
email), provide the new hire with your personal
guidelines and/or tips regarding the various types of
correspondence and reports they will be using.
Quotation Marks

‘la’ “La La”
Use double quotation marks “quote” to enclose
a direct quotation:
“No good deed,” wrote Clare Booth Luce, “will go
unpunished.”
Keep in mind that direct quotations repeat a
speaker's exact words.
Paul said, “I'm satisfied.”
Do not use quotation marks around indirect
quotations:
Paul said that he was satisfied.
Where does the
period go… inside
or outside of the
quotation mark?
