OpenStudy (girlover):

Which one do you think is correctly used?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B?

OpenStudy (girlover):

quotations marks are used for essays and writing things as in poetry and short stories and plays and other works of arts..so yes you are correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So its B

OpenStudy (girlover):

Lets look at A..does it seem to have any problems with it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes?

OpenStudy (girlover):

what is that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am going with B...

OpenStudy (girlover):

paintings are to be italicized which this means that answer B is out of the question..so you only have one choice because essays are suppose to be in quotations.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok...
