Question

Describe how to accurately turn the words of an author into a direct quote. i need an essay answer

Answer 1

Answer:

A direct quote is done when a person adds the words of another person into his own words.

The process of making a direct quote from the words of a speaker is done by using quotation marks to indicate where the quote is starting and where it ends.

An example is:

I do not believe that women should be allowed to run for political office because in the words of Aaron Max, "women are emotional beings with little inclination to logic".

From the given example, my words were used and then a direct quote was added to buttress the point being made.
