when using quotations, should I've been using a capital
letter at the start of the
quote if it has a capital
letter in the text I am
quoting from. If it is taken
as a fragment of a sentence, I
use an elipsis to indicate
there is more of the sentence
before what I am quoting, but
it is not relevant to my
writing. Am I right?

it depends on the quotation, if it has been taken from the start of a sentence & it has ( in the original text) a capital, then yeah bt if you're taking an abstract section from the middle of a paragaph or sentence, then no!!! |
