Yes and maybe.


The water rising was "14 inches higher than Thursday in the Sunday flooding."

This is an example of D, where I am providing a quote without a citation. Whether if it quote this information or paraphrase it, it would still be incorrect to provide the information without a citation.

Try to think of when people use quotes in general. Why would they use a quote?

Like if you wrote a groundbreaking paper on the movement of penguins, and I was reporting on it live on TV. Say I used a quote from your paper, but I didn't cite it or give you credit. Would you be happy about that? Is academically professional?

Answer 23

So if you're writing a paper on lion prides in Africa, and you don't understand a source about it. The solution is to just quote sentences from it?

Answer 24

o that makes no sense if you dont understand it

Answer 25

Yeah, a paper is supposed to be your argument that you're trying to convince the reader with. If you include a couple sentences of something you don't even understand, how is your paragraph or essay going to be cohesive and flow off of each other?

Answer 26

c would however i think make sense if they explain it better than you could its better to use ""

Answer 27

I would agree. People quote people like Ghandi and MLK partially because they said some things just perfectly. I couldn't improve on it so we'll use their words.
