Word of the day: quotation marks by Margaret Leora Workman; Warponie Art

Dictionary definition according to Webster’s New World dictionary:

“ either of a pair of punctuation marks used to enclose a direct quotation or of single quotation marks enclosing a quotation within a quotation.”

Since I am talking already about something on my blog I have to use single quotations. Also on word press I cannot underline anything or use italics so if I want to talk about a book title or movie, or whatever, I have to use quotation marks and since I am already talking to you then I put them into single quotation marks.
