Instructions
Step 1
Place the cursor in front of the word (sentence or paragraph) that you plan to enclose in quotes. If the given word is written in English, or in another foreign language, then it will be correct to use quotation marks ("…") or their varieties - computer quotation marks. Looks like "paws" in the form of two small dashes-commas, which are placed just above the word, in front of it and at the end of it. In turn, words and phrases in Russian are indicated by quotation marks "Christmas trees". They are depicted in the form of reduced double less than signs (<>), which highlight a word or phrase on both sides.
Step 2
In order to insert the quotes "Christmas trees" on the keyboard, find the "Shift" key. It is located in two places - on the right, under the "Enter" button, and on the left, under the "Caps Lock" button. Next, simultaneously press "Shift" and the key with the number "2", which also contains quotes. After that, in front of the word where the cursor is, quotes "Christmas trees" will open. Similarly, close the quotes by placing the cursor at the end of the desired word and pressing the same key combination. In case you need to add quotation marks, switch to English ("Alt" + "Shift" combination). Then press "Shift" + Russian letter "E" (where the top two commas are also drawn).
Step 3
Some programs and keyboards cannot insert herringbone quotes, adding “feet” instead. In this situation, you need to know how to insert quotes using a simple method of copying elements from one text to another. This method is especially convenient for novice users who do not yet know all the intricacies of working on the keyboard. Select the quotation marks with the left mouse button. Then right-click on the selected object. Select "Copy" from the list of commands that appears. To insert quotation marks in other text or a text editor, move the mouse cursor where you want to insert. Likewise, right-click and select "Paste." The copied quotes will then appear at the cursor location.
