Which sentence is punctuated correctly? A. The doctor warned her that "she should stay off her ankle." B. The doctor warned her, "Stay off your ankle." C. The doctor warned her, Stay off your ankle. D. The doctor warned her "that she should stay off her ankle."
B.
why doh
The doctor warned her, "Stay off your ankle." I think that's it since he's directly talking to her
ok
There is a direct quote, henceforth we need the quotations. Also, generally always add a comma before introducing a direct quotation.
next and thank you guys for helping btw your pfp pandora looks like the girl from how i met your mother no offence
Which sentence uses capital letters correctly? A. My mother said, "an Australian invented the first refrigerator." B. My mother said, "An Australian invented the first refrigerator."
B. Capitalize the first letter of the quotation as it is the beginning of the quoted statement.
My mother said, "An Australian invented the first refrigerator." She's talking so the quotation marks are there, the An is capital since it's the beginning of a quote, and Australian is a proper noun

"Be careful with the glue gun!", Jeremiah exclaimed. I think
2nd opinion
B., as the quote is broken into two parts. The end of the first part needs a comma at the end because the quote is continued on later. A comma is also needed after "he said," since we are introducing the other part of the quote after that.
I'll trust Pandora on this one
But B is not caped when the quotation starts tho!
at the end
sooooo
nvm i should read her comment before i speek
B doesn't look properly punctuated... but then again, I've been wrong before

I'm 100% sure on this, haha.
