Which quotation is punctuated correctly?


A- “Take it away” he said, “because I have no use for it.”

B-“Take it away” he said “because I have no use for it.”

C- “Take it away.” He said. “Because I have no use for it.”

D-“Take it away,” he said, “because I have no use for it.”

Respuesta :

D-“Take it away,” he said, “because I have no use for it.”

The quotations in this sentence are rightly put before and after the commas in their right position.

Hope this helps :)

The answer to your question would be that the quotation that is punctuated correctly is the following one: "Take it away," he said, "because I have no use for it." That is, your answer would be D.

Whenever you are splitting the quote in half to interject a parenthetical, you should not capitalize the second part of the quote as it is part of the other half. It is only one quotation.
