Quote placement

  • For American English, place the comma or period inside the closing quotation marks. This is a convention, regardless of logic.
  • For British English, the rule is more logical—punctuation is placed inside the quotation marks only if it belongs to the quoted material.
  • In Chinese, the punctuation at the end of a sentence typically goes outside the quotation marks, unless the quoted text is a complete sentence.
