Strategy: Quoting from a text

A quote, or quotation, is a piece of text that you copy from a larger piece of text. This can be a word, a part of a sentence, a whole sentence or even a couple of sentences.

When you want to quote from a text, you start with single quotation marks (‘). Copy the first two words, add (...) to indicate you’ve left out a piece, and end again with single quotation marks (’).

For instance, if you want to quote the first sentence of this strategy block, it goes as follows: ‘A quote (...) of text.’

Remember the following:

– If you’re quoting a whole sentence, start with a capital letter.

– If you’re only quoting part of a sentence, don’t start with a capital letter, but with a lower case one.

Strategy

Having a conversation

Make sure you start and end every conversation in a correct way. Try to prevent the conversation from stalling (getting stuck). 

If you don’t understand what the other person is saying, you can:

1 say you don’t understand something:

I’m sorry, but I don’t understand. / Could you repeat that, please? / I don’t know what that means.

2 ask for an explanation:

What does that mean? / What does it look like? / Can you describe it? / Can you give me an example?

If you don’t know a word, you can:

1 describe what something looks like:

It looks like a mouse, but it’s bigger. (rat)

2 explain what something is used for:

You can put tea or coffee in it to keep it hot. (thermos)
