You can specify literal quotes by using an additional quote with a quote of the same type, or by enclosing a quote in the opposite kind of quotation mark.
The first method is to use an additional quote with a quote of the same type. This is called “escaping” the quote. For example, if you begin a character entry with a single quote, but you want to include a single quote as part of the entry, use two single quotes:
’I don’’t understand.’
Here is an example containing internal double and single quotes. The single quote does not have to be escaped, but the double quote does:
"He said, ""It’s not really confusing."""
The second method is to enclose a quote in the opposite kind of quotation mark. In other words, surround an entry containing a double quote with single quotes (or vice versa). Here are some examples:
’George said, "There must be a better way."’ "Isn’t there a better way?" ’George asked, "Isn”t there a better way?"’
To continue a character string that would go off the end of one line on your screen, enter a backslash (\) before going to the following line.
