Brackets Parentheses and Quotation Marks

There is no specific punctuation, you just write it as part of your sentence.

"I need half a litre"

"I used three quarters/seven eighths/eighteen twenty-sixths or that bottle"

or whichever fraction you want to use, I'm not sure if this answers your question, but that's the understanding I got from it.

Lozenges, also known as diamonds or rhombuses, are used in some specialized areas of linguistics and phonetics to indicate vocal quality, pitch, or tone in transcriptions of speech. They can represent nasalization, denasality, creaky voice, or other phonetic features.

The combination of a question mark with quotation marks is used to indicate a question within a quote. This punctuation is referred to as a question within a question or a quoted question.

The punctuation mark used in Spanish spelling is called "tilde." It is placed over certain letters to indicate stress or to differentiate between words that are spelled the same but have different meanings.

1141 Ivywood Drive, Oxnard, California.

Period is the punctuation mark for titles of a person.

Examples:

Dr. - Doctor

Engr. - Engineer

A quotation is a spoken or written passage repeated by someone other than the original source. It is typically used when someone wants to reference the specific words or ideas of another person in their own work or communication.

The punctuation mark in the name O'Brian is an apostrophe. It is used to indicate the omission of letters (in this case, the letter "c" in "O'Brien"), and to show possession or as a contraction.

A period (.) typically ends a statement, while a period or an exclamation mark (!) may end a command, depending on the tone and context.

Each punctuation mark has a different meaning. The period (.) means it is the end of a thought. A exclamation mark (!) means that someone wants to emphasize what they just said. A question mark (?) means that the text before is should be read as a question. A colon (:) means that the material after the colon will most like be a list. A semi-colon (;) means that the writer is introducing a new thought within the sentence.

You are the writer. Whether or not you would put onomatopoeia in quotation marks would depend on how you used it. The dog said, "Bark." The bee said, "Buzz." The dog ran down the street, bark bark. The bee flew past, buzz, buzz. Are you making it deliberate or inadvertent? Is it descriptive?

No, quotation marks are not typically used with onomatopoeias. Onomatopoeias are words that represent sounds, like "buzz" or "meow". They are usually written as regular words without quotation marks.

No, whatever end punctuation is at the end of the quote is enough. No comma is needed.

Examples:
Correct - She screamed, "The house is on fire!" and then she ran out the front door.
Incorrect - She screamed, "The house is on fire!," and then she ran out the front door.

In American English, periods are typically placed inside quotation marks at the end of a sentence. However, in British English, the period is placed outside the quotation marks unless it is part of the quoted material.

Yes, punctuation marks play a crucial role in a descriptive essay. They help organize ideas, clarify meaning, and guide the reader through the text. Commas, periods, colons, and semicolons are commonly used to create a clear and effective flow of information in descriptive writing.

In academic writing, you'll follow the MLA -- Modern Language Association guidelines. Seehttp:/www.mla.org.

In other writing, you'll follow the standard style guide for the publisher.

If you have no access to a style guide, it's a good idea just to be consistent.

For example, you would probably capitalize the first letter of every word in a speech title. It would not be necessary to use quote marks, italics, or bold font, especially if the context of what you're writing clearly indicates that the words are the title of a speech.

I don't know if you're asking if quotation marks should be used to begin a sentence or if you're asking if a sentence should be started with a quote from an outside source. So I will answer both. Quotation marks may begin a sentence at any time necessary. While writing essays, in my experience, professors like a little introduction before a quote. But there's no rule saying you can't. Maybe in the sentence before the quote you write an explanation then end the sentence and start the next with a quote. But you could most times use a colon instead of ending the sentence and then the quote would still be within the first sentence.

Yes, quotation marks are typically used within speech bubbles to indicate direct speech by a character in written works such as comics or graphic novels. It helps to distinguish spoken words from narration or other text within the same panel.

Terminal punctuation marks are used at the end of a sentence, such as periods, question marks, and exclamation points. Internal punctuation marks are used within a sentence, such as commas, semicolons, and colons.

The stress mark in Spanish is called a "tilde" and is placed on the stressed syllable of a word. The rules for placing the stress mark vary depending on the type of word (agudas, llanas, esdrújulas), but generally, you'll find them in words that don't follow the standard rules of stress placement or to differentiate between homonyms.

If a proper name or nickname is part of a quote and requires quotation marks, use double quotation marks for the overall quote and single quotation marks within the quote for the proper name or nickname.

Double quotation marks are typically used for both proper names and nicknames in writing. For example, "John" or "Johnny". However, it is essential to be consistent in your usage throughout your writing.

Quotation marks are used to indicate actual dialogue, or spoken words (quotes) or written words from a source.

They can also be used to indicate a term or phrase whose meaning is not what it appears to be, or with which there could be disagreement.

Example (quote) : He said "I went to town."

Example (written) : Mark Twain wrote "When in doubt, tell the truth."

Example (contention) : The mayor announced some "improvements" in the tax system.
