Question

Difference between Italicizing and quotation marks for Titles?
Please explain

Answer 1

Will give medal

Answer 2

Italics and quotation marks are used for titles of books, plays and other works of art. italics and quotation marks are used to set the title apart from the text surrounding it. For example, if you were writing a sentence that explained "I read The Cat in the Hat" it wouldn't necessarily be clear exactly what the title was, or even that there was a title at all.

As such, italics and quotation marks are used to offset the title and to make it stand out from the rest of the text. A sentence reading:

I read The Cat in the Hat or
I read "The Cat in the Hat"
is suddenly a lot more clear. We know now what you read. However, which should you use? Should you set off a title with italics or should you set it off with quotation marks? The rules for titles using italics and quotation marks can answer that question for you

Italics are used in the titles of

Books
Full-length plays
Long poems
Music albums
Anything that has sections, like anthologies or collections
Newspapers
Magazines
Movies
Television and radio shows
Ships (With ships and other craft, the USS or the HMS is not italicized.)
Airplanes
Spacecrafts
Trains
Some scientific names
Court cases
Works of art
Musical works like operas and musicals
Computer and video games

Quotation marks enclose the titles of:

Short works
Sections of long works including chapters, articles, songs, short stories, essays, poems, short films, and any other time a long work is included in an anthology or collection
Technically, television shows and movies are to be italicized because individual scenes or episodes would be put in quotation marks. However, many times these titles are put in quotation marks and you will find this done quite often, especially in reviews.
