Quotation mark 
 Quotation marks or inverted commas (informally known as quotes and speech marks) are punctuation marks used in pairs to mark a section of text as speech, a quotation, a phrase, or an unusual word.
Quotation mark 
 Depending on the typeface, the opening and closing quotation marks may be identical in form (called “vertical” or “straight” or “typewriter” quotation marks), or they may be distinctly left-handed and right-handed (“typographic” or, colloquially, “curly” quotation marks).
Quotation mark 
 The closing single quotation mark is identical or similar in form to the apostrophe, and similar to the prime symbol.
Quotation mark 
 Double quotation marks are used as a rule in the United States, while both single and double quotation marks are used in the United Kingdom and other commonwealth countries.
Quotation mark 
 If such a passage is further quoted in another publication, then all of their forms have to be shifted over by one level.
Quotation mark 
 In most cases, quotations which span multiple paragraphs should be set as block quotations, and thus do not require quotation marks.
Quotation mark 
 The convention in English is to put an opening quotation mark at the first and each subsequent paragraph, but use a closing quotation mark only for the final paragraph of the quotation, as in the following example from the book Pride and Prejudice:
Quotation mark 
 As noted below, in some older texts, the quotation mark is repeated every line, rather than every paragraph.
Quotation mark 
 The Spanish convention uses closing quotation marks at the beginning of all subsequent paragraphs beyond the first.
Quotation mark 
 When quoted text is interrupted, such as with the phrase he said, a closing quotation mark is used before the interruption, and an opening quotation mark after.
Quotation mark 
 Commas are also often used before and after the interruption, more often for quotations of speech than for quotations of text:
Quotation mark 
 This is because a paraphrase is an indirect quote, and in the course of any composition, it is important to document when one is using a quotation versus when one is using a paraphrased idea.
Quotation mark 
 However, another convention when quoting text in the body of a paragraph or sentence—for example, in an essay—is to recognize double quotation marks as marking an exact quotation, and single quotation marks as marking a paraphrased quotation or a quotation where grammar, pronouns, or plurality have been changed in order to fit the sentence containing the quotation (see reported speech).
Quotation mark 
 Quotation marks are also used to indicate that the writer realizes that a word is not being used in its current commonly accepted sense.
Quotation mark 
 In addition to conveying a neutral attitude and to call attention to a neologism, or slang, or special terminology (also known as jargon), quoting can also indicate words or phrases that are descriptive but unusual, colloquial, folksy, startling, humorous, metaphoric, or contain a pun:
Quotation mark 
 For example, to indicate that a quoted word is not official terminology, or that a quoted phrase presupposes things that the author does not necessarily agree with.
Quotation mark 
 indicate special terminology that should be identified for accuracy’s sake as someone else’s terminology, for example if a term (particularly a controversial term) pre-dates the writer or represents the views of someone else, perhaps without judgement (contrast this neutrally-distancing quoting to the negative use of scare quotes)
Quotation mark 
 The Chicago Manual of Style (CMS), 15th edition acknowledges this type of use but cautions against overuse in section 7.58, “Quotation marks are often used to alert readers that a term is used in a nonstandard, ironic, or other special sense […] They imply ‘This is not my term,’ or ‘This is not how the term is usually applied.’
Quotation mark 
 Using either quotation marks or italics can emphasize that an instance of a word refers to the word itself, rather than its associated concept.
Quotation mark 
 A three-way distinction is occasionally made between normal use of a word (no quotation marks), referring to the concept behind the word (single quotation marks), and the word itself (double quotation marks):
Quotation mark 
 The logic, for this form, derives from the need to distinguish use forms, coupled with the mandate to retain consistent notation for like use forms.
Quotation mark 
 The switching between double and single quotes in nested citation quotes reveals the same literary device for reducing ambiguity.
Quotation mark 
 Whether these are single or double is again a matter of style; however, many styles, especially for poetry, prefer the use of single quotation marks.
Quotation mark 
 As a rule, a whole publication would be italicised, whereas the titles of minor works (such as poems or short stories inside the collection) would be written with quotation marks.
Quotation mark 
 Quotation marks can also offset a nickname embedded in an actual name, or a false or ironic title embedded in an actual title; for example, Nat “King” Cole, Miles “Tails” Prower, or John “Hannibal” Smith.
Quotation mark 
 Quotes are sometimes used incorrectly for emphasis in lieu of underlining or italics, most commonly on signs or placards.
Quotation mark 
 For example, For sale: “fresh” fish, “fresh” oysters, could be construed to imply that fresh is not used with its everyday meaning, or indeed to indicate that the fish or oysters are anything but fresh.
Quotation mark 
 And again, Cashiers’ desks open until noon for your “convenience” might mean that the convenience was for the bank employees, not the customers.
Quotation mark 
 They are called “American” and “British,” but some American writers and organizations use the British style and vice versa.
Quotation mark 
 In both systems, question marks and exclamation marks are placed inside or outside quoted material depending on whether they are for the whole sentence or just the quoted words, but colons and semicolons always go outside.
Quotation mark 
 This style of punctuation is common in the U.S., Canada, and it is also used in the U.K. in fiction and journalism.
Quotation mark 
 In British style, which is sometimes called logical punctuation, the rule is the same as for question marks and exclamation points: the comma or period goes outside if it is for the whole sentence but inside if it is for just the quoted words.
Quotation mark 
 When dealing with words-as-words, short-form works like the titles of songs, and sentence fragments, the two systems are different:
Quotation mark 
 For quoting direct speech, American rules place periods and commas inside the quotation marks all the time.
Quotation mark 
 In non-fiction, British publishers may permit placing punctuation that is not part of the person’s speech inside the quotation marks but prefer that it be placed outside.
Quotation mark 
 According to the Cambridge Handbook for Editors, Copy-editors and Proofreaders, periods and commas that are part of the person’s speech are permitted inside the quotation marks regardless.
Quotation mark 
 Many American style guides explicitly permit periods and commas outside the quotation marks when the presence of the punctuation mark inside the quotation marks will lead to ambiguity, such as when describing keyboard input:
Quotation mark 
 Only the period, however, cannot end a quoted sentence when it does not also end the enclosing sentence, except for literal text:

Quotation mark 
 In English, when a quotation follows other writing on a line of text, a space precedes the opening quotation mark unless the preceding symbol, such as a dash, requires that there be no space.
Quotation mark 
 When a quotation is followed by other writing on a line of text, a space follows the closing quotation mark unless it is immediately followed by other punctuation within the sentence, such as a colon or closing punctuation. (
Quotation mark 
 These exceptions are ignored by some Asian computer systems that systematically display quotation marks with the included spacing, as this spacing is part of the fixed-width characters.)
Quotation mark 
 There is generally no space between an opening quotation mark and the following word, or a closing quotation mark and the preceding word.
Quotation mark 
 When a double quotation mark or a single quotation mark immediately follows the other, proper spacing for legibility requires that a non-breaking space be inserted.
Quotation mark 
 Straight quotation marks (or italicized straight quotation marks) are often used to approximate the prime and double prime.
Quotation mark 
 For example, when signifying feet and inches, arcminutes and arcseconds, or minutes and seconds, where the quotation mark symbolises the latter part of the pair.
Quotation mark 
 For instance, 5 feet and 6 inches is often written 5' 6", and 40 degrees, 20 arcminutes and 50 arcseconds is written 40° 20' 50".
Quotation mark 
 Prime and double prime are not present in most character sets, including ASCII and Latin-1, but are present in Unicode, as characters U+2032 (dec.
Quotation mark 
 Straight single and double quotation marks are used in most programming languages to delimit strings or literal characters.
Quotation mark 
 In some languages (e. g. Pascal) only one type is allowed, in some (e. g. C and its derivatives) both are used with different meanings and in others (e. g. Python) both are used interchangeably.
Quotation mark 
 In some languages, if it is desired to include the same quotation marks used to delimit a string inside the string, the quotation marks are doubled.
Quotation mark 
 Standard English computer keyboard layouts inherited the single and double “straight” quotation marks from the typewriter (the single quotation mark also doubling as an apostrophe), and they do not include individual keys for left-handed and right-handed typographic quotation marks.
Quotation mark 
 However, most computer text-editing programs provide a “smart quotes” feature (see below) to automatically convert “straight” quote marks into typographic punctuation.
Quotation mark 
 Some websites do not allow typographic quotation marks or apostrophes in posts (one such example being YouTube).
Quotation mark 
 To make typographic quotation marks easier to enter, publishing software often automatically converts typewriter quotation marks (and apostrophes) to typographic form during text entry (with or without the user being aware of it).
Quotation mark 
 Some implementations incorrectly produce an opening single quotation mark in places where an apostrophe is required, for example, in abbreviated years like ’08 for 2008.
Quotation mark 
 During the Renaissance, writers showed quoted speech by using a typeface different from the main body text, like we use italics today.
Quotation mark 
 Quotation marks were first cut in metal type during the middle of the sixteenth century, printers were using them a lot by the seventeenth.
Quotation mark 
 In some Baroque and Romantic-period books, quotation marks would be repeated at the beginning of every line of a long quotation.
Quotation mark 
 When printers stopped doing this, they still kept the empty margin, which is where we get our modern practice of indenting before block quotation.
Haute couture 
 It is usually made from high-quality, expensive fabric and sewn with extreme attention to detail and finish by the most experienced and capable seamstresses, often using time-consuming, hand-executed techniques.
Haute couture 
 However, the term is also used to describe all high-fashion custom-fitted clothing in other 'fashion capitals' such as Milan, London, New York, Tokyo and Madrid.
Haute couture 
 The couturier Charles Frederick Worth (13 October 1826–10 March 1895), is widely considered the father of haute couture as it is known today.
Haute couture 
 Clients selected a design, specified colours and fabrics, and had a version tailor-made in Worth's workshop.
Haute couture 
 Worth combined individual tailoring with a standardization more characteristic of the ready-to-wear clothing industry, which was also developing during this period.
Haute couture 
 To earn the right to call itself a couture house and to use the term haute couture, members of the Chambre syndicale de la haute couture must follow these rules:
Haute couture 
 Each season (that's twice a year), present a collection to the Paris press, with at least thirty-five runs/exits with outfits for both daytime wear and evening wear.
Haute couture 
 Outside the Chambre syndicale are many successful fashion houses which deal in prêt-à-porter (the French term for ready-to-wear fashion).

 After high school Newsom studied composition and creative writing at Mills College in Oakland, California.
When Night Is Falling 
 It is about a university professor dealing with a bad relationship who gets confused when she starts having romantic feelings for a female circus performer.
When Night Is Falling 
 The movie was later released with two versions: the original unrated version, and an R rated version.
Hurricane Bob 
 The track of Hurricane Bob by August 18 and 19 was similar to 1954's Hurricane Carol, another storm that affected North Carolina and New England.
Nithing pole 
 A Nithing pole, according to ancient Scandinavian and Germanic pagan beliefs, was a kind of pole used for cursing enemies.
Nithing pole 
 The way of cursing was supposed to be, to cut a horse's head from its body, and put it on top of the pole.

Emoticon 
 An emoticon () is a written symbol, often as 2 or 3 punctuation characters, that stands for the writer's mood or facial expression.
Emoticon 
 Some examples are: a smile ":-)" or wink ";-)" or frown ":(" or dog nose ":O" or le meme arrow ">" (see many other examples in text below).
Emoticon 
 Emoticons are often used to tell a reader about the general tone of a statement, and can change or improve the reading of plain writing.
Emoticon 
 Over the years, many kinds of emoticons have been created, and now there are hundreds of known emoticons.
Emoticon 
 In web forums,  instant messengers and online games, text emoticons are often automatically replaced with small pictures, which came to be called emoticons as well.
Emoticon 
 Certain complex character combinations can only be accomplished in a double-byte language, giving rise to very complex forms, sometimes known by their romanized Japanese name of kaomoji.
Emoticon 
 The use of emoticons can be traced back to the 19th century, and they were commonly used in casual or humorous writing.
Emoticon 
 In April 1857, the National Telegraphic Review and Operators Guide wrote about the use of the number 73 in Morse code to mean "love and kisses" (later changed to "best regards").
Emoticon 
 A New York Times transcript of an 1862 speech given by Abraham Lincoln contains ";)" (now known as a winky-face).
Emoticon 
 Emoticons had already come into use in sci-fi fandom in the 1940s, although there seems to have been a lapse in cultural continuity between the communities.
Emoticon 
 In 1963 the "smiley face", a yellow button with two black dots representing eyes and an upturned thick curve representing a mouth, was created by freelance artist Harvey Ball.
Emoticon 
 This smiley probably inspired many later emoticons; the most basic picture that shows this is in fact a small yellow smiley face.
Emoticon 
 In a New York Times interview in April 1969, Alden Whitman asked writer Vladimir Nabokov: "How do you rank yourself among writers (living) and of the immediate past?"
Emoticon 
 Nabokov answered: "I often think there should exist a special typographical sign for a smile – some sort of concave mark, a supine round bracket, which I would now like to trace in reply to your question."
Emoticon 
 These shorthand notations became the foundation of "emoticons" as video terminals began to replace teletypes in general use.
Emoticon 
 They had many of the advantages of later character-based emoticons because they could be used anywhere that you could type text.
Emoticon 
 They also had many of the advantages of later graphical emoticons because they used character overstriking which created graphical images.
Emoticon 
 Several Internet websites –such as BT's Connected Earth– assert that Kevin Mackenzie proposed -) as a joke-marker in April 1979, on the  MsgGroup ARPANET mailing list.
Emoticon 
 Although similar to a sideways smiling face, the intended interpretation was different and this does not appear to have inspired the later smileys.
Emoticon 
 In the late sixties, the APL programming language and timesharing environment, with its rich character set with backspace and overstrike capability provided a fruitful arena for interactive and creative symbol invention.
Emoticon 
 The first person documented to have used the emoticons :-) and :-(, with a specific suggestion that they be used to express emotion, was Scott Fahlman in the U.S. at Carnegie Mellon University; the text of his original proposal, posted to the Carnegie Mellon University computer science general board on 19 September 1982 (11:44), was thought to have been lost, but was recovered twenty years later by Jeff Baird from old backup tapes.
Emoticon 
 In web forums, instant messengers and online games, text emoticons are often automatically replaced with small corresponding images, which also came to be called "Emoticons."
Emoticon 
 Similarly, in some versions of Microsoft Word, the Auto Correct feature replaces basic smileys such as :-) and :-( with a single smiley-like character.
Emoticon 
 Originally, these image emoticons were fairly simple and replaced only the most straightforward and common character sequences, but over time they became so complex that the more specialized emoticons are often input using a menu or popup windows, sometimes listing hundreds of items.
Emoticon 
 Emoticons have also expanded beyond simple cartoon facial expressions to a variety of still or moving images.
Emoticon 
 Some of these graphical emoticons do not actually represent faces or emotions; for example, an "emoticon" showing a guitar might be used to represent music.
Emoticon 
 Further, some instant messaging software is designed to play a sound upon receiving certain emoticons.
Emoticon 
 A web-forum software package which performed this transformation was Proxicom Forum, developed in 1996.
Emoticon 
 An August 2004 issue of the Risks Digest (comp.risks on USENET) pointed out a problem with such features which are not under the sender's control:
Emoticon 
 It's hard to know in advance what character-strings will be parsed into what kind of unintended image.
Emoticon 
 A colleague was discussing his 401(k) plan with his boss, who happens to be female, via instant messaging.
Emoticon 
 He discovered, to his horror, that the boss's instant-messaging client was rendering the "(k)" as a big pair of red smoochy lips.
Emoticon 
 Many sites use GIF or PNG graphic files, because of their transparency and small file size capabilities.
Emoticon 
 Some emoticons are made in vector format, such as SVG, and automatically processed using a graphics library.
Emoticon 
 This allows SVG files to be automatically rendered as a GIF or PNG file, which is compatible with most browsers, which SVG is not.
Emoticon 
 Traditionally, the emoticon in Western style is written from left to right, the way one reads and writes in most Western cultures.
Emoticon 
 To more easily recognize them, tilt your head toward your left shoulder (or occasionally toward your right shoulder if the "top" of the emoticon is toward the right).
Emoticon 
 The most basic emoticons are relatively consistent in form, but each of them can also be transformed by being rotated (making them tiny ambigrams), with or a without hyphen (nose).
Emoticon 
 There are also some possible variations to emoticons to get new definitions, like changing a character to express a new feeling, or slightly change the mood of the emoticon.
Emoticon 
 Others include wink ;) a grin :D smug :-> and tongue out :P for disgust or simply just to stick the tongue out for silliness, such as when blowing a raspberry.
Emoticon 
 An equal sign is often used for the eyes in place of the colon, without changing the meaning of the emoticon.
Emoticon 
 In these instances, the hyphen is almost always either omitted or, occasionally, replaced with an 'o' as in =O) .
Emoticon 
 In most circles it has become acceptable to omit the hyphen, whether a colon or an equal sign is used for the eyes, e.g. :) .
Emoticon 
 In general, similar-looking characters are commonly substituted for one another: for instance, o, O, and 0 can all be used interchangeably, sometimes for subtly different effect.
Emoticon 
 In some cases, one type of character may look better in a certain font and therefore be preferred over another.
Emoticon 
 Some variants are also more common in certain countries because of reasons like keyboard layouts, for example the smiley =) is common in Scandinavia where the keys for = and ) are placed right beside each other.
Emoticon 
 Also, sometimes, the user can replace the brackets used for the mouth with other, similar shapes, such as ] and [ instead of ) and ( .
Emoticon 
 An O or U with an umlaut, Ö, Ü can be seen as an emoticon, as the upright version of :O (meaning that one is surprised) and :D (meaning that one is very happy).
Emoticon 
 Users from East Asia popularized a style of emoticons that can be understood without tilting one's head to the left.
Emoticon 
 The asterisks indicate the eyes; the central character, commonly an underscore, the mouth; and the parentheses, the outline of the face.
Emoticon 
 Two separate studies, in 2007 at Hokkaido University and in 2009 at Glasgow University, showed that Japanese and other East Asians read facial expressions by looking mainly at the eyes, and the researchers noted that this is reflected in East Asian emoticons which put emphasis on the eyes, compared to Western emoticons which emote mainly with the mouth.
Emoticon 
 Different emotions such as (")(-_-)("), are expressed by changing the character representing the eyes, for example ' T ' can be used to express crying or sadness (T_T).
Emoticon 
 The emphasis on the eyes is reflected in the common usage of emoticons that use only the eyes, e.g. ^^. Looks of stress are represented by the likes of (x_x) while (-_-;) is a generic emote for nervousness, the semicolon indicating sweat that occurs during anxiety.
Emoticon 
 Characters like hyphens or periods can replace the underscore; the period is often used for a smaller, "cuter" mouth or to represent a nose, e.g. (^.^).
Emoticon 
 Many times, the parentheses are left out completely, e.g. ^^, >.<, o_O, O.O, <.<;, though this is more likely in Western culture.
Emoticon 
 A quotation mark ", apostrophe ', or semicolon ; can be added to the emoticon to imply apprehension or embarrassment, in the same way that a sweat drop is used in anime.
Emoticon 
 Microsoft IME 2002 (Japanese) or later supports the use of both forms of emoticons by enabling Microsoft IME Spoken Language Dictionary.
Emoticon 
 Further variations of emoticons may be produced by using Combining characters, e.g. ̼⌂̺͛ᴖ̲̿ᴥ̲̿ᴖ̺͛⌂̼ and ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶ .
Emoticon 
 All of these can be used also with [ ] instead of ( ), or without the parentheses at all in some of the cases
