Discussion
 Scenario: You are a medical office manager and

Quotation Marks

Old Days-Inch and foot markers

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?
“word”
