Which method is used to integrate the quotation into this passage?
Dafna1 [17]
Quotes are usually integrated using question marks if the quotes are shorter, or with indentation if you quote entire paragraphs. If you wish to change the quote a bit you have to add [] brackets outside of the words that you want to change. After the quote you add regular brackets and write the surname and the page number of the author's book.
