If the author name is mentioned before a direct quote the name should be included in the citation

English
1 answer:

It depends on the format. I know for MLA format which a lot of middle and high schoolers use for English, the author's name goes in with the page number citation when there are multiple authors for one book.

Ex: "direct quote" (<em>author's name</em> 99).

But, if you are setting up a signal phrase with context, the author's name goes before your quote with the page number after. You could also simply say "the author says" as long as you've included the author's name prior to the quote and signal phrase.

Ex: When she ate an apple in the garden, <em>author''s name</em> narrates, "direct quote" (99).

I hope this helped. Also, here is a website I use that states rules for the format you are using for your writing assignment! https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/mla_style/mla_style_introduction.html

Answer:

Ichabod Crane: He is the protagonist who disputes Katrina's love with Brom. Ichabod is not as admired in the city and has disadvantages as winning the woman he wants. He is also not as strong and handsome as Brom.

Identify the degree of comparison of the underlined adjective or adverb.
Gemiola [76]

In the sentence: "We would like to work in the soup kitchen <u>more frequently</u> next year", the degree of comparison of the underlined adverb is B. Comparative.

In English grammar, an adjective or adverb can be in a particular form that implicates a comparative relation. This relation can be of more or less, or greater or lesser.

Comparatives are characterized by the suffix -er ("This house is bigger than the other one") or distinguished by the word more or less ("This job is more difficult than the other one").
