Proper punctuation

When quoting what someone has said, we must pay attention to the correct use of punctuation. The following rules are helpful:

  • Place quotation marks at the beginning and ending the person's exact words, in order to separate them from your own.
  • A comma must be place right before the first quotation mark if we use verbs such as "said" or "stated" before it.
  • The period or full stop must be placed before the final quotation mark.

With the information above in mind, we can choose letter D as the one that is correctly punctuated.
