Grammar Rules Questions Medium
The correct way to use quotation marks within quotation marks is to alternate between single and double quotation marks. When a quotation is being quoted within another quotation, the inner quotation should be enclosed in single quotation marks, while the outer quotation should be enclosed in double quotation marks. For example:
She said, "John told me, 'I can't make it to the party tonight.'"
In this example, the outer quotation is "John told me, 'I can't make it to the party tonight,'" and the inner quotation is 'I can't make it to the party tonight.'
