Question

Hi
Please assist me on this one, if one word in the sentence have inverted comma('first'),what does that mean?

Answer 1

It could be that the word is quoted from another source. It might be that the writer wanted to call special attention to that word.

If you post the specific sentence, I'll try to help you understand it.

Answer 2

After that 'first' meeting, I found myself visiting my homeboys more often.
