When you are writing, inverted commas (also called speech marks) go before and after any words that a characters use.
If another character replies, the rule is to use another set of inverted commas put the new person speaking on a new line.
They usually come in speech.
For example:
“There’s some porridge on the stove,” said her mum.
“But I’ve already had some porridge today!” exclaimed Goldilocks.
inverted commas make it clear when someone is speaking They open at the start and close at the end of
the speech
