Answer 3

When writers directly quote text from another source, they use quotation marks to indicate that the words are taken directly from the original source. The quoted text is usually incorporated into the writer's own sentence, and it must be cited with the appropriate in-text citation or footnote. The quotation marks signal to the reader that the words are not the writer's own, but rather a direct representation of the original source. This quoting technique allows writers to support their arguments or provide evidence by referencing the words of experts or other credible sources.
