More About the Speech Marks Symbol
Speech Marks Symbol on this page is the paired sequence “”, made from U+201C LEFT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK and U+201D RIGHT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK. The opening and closing characters enclose quoted speech or text in many English typographic styles. They are two distinct code points, not one symbol. Correct examples include “Hello”, She said, “Yes.”, and a title shown as “Example”. The left mark begins the quotation and the right mark closes it. Language and publisher style can change the preferred quotation system, so this page does not replace a complete editorial guide. Keep the pair in the proper order. Do not substitute two straight ASCII quotes when curly typography is required, and do not mix “” with single quotation marks ‘’ without following the chosen style. Nested quotations, punctuation placement, and language-specific guillemets need their own rules. Copying should preserve both characters. The sequence is U+201C U+201D, with decimal references “ and ” and hexadecimal references “ and ”. Test smart-quote conversion in word processors because automatic replacement can introduce the wrong opening or closing mark. Accessible prose normally needs no special label because the quotation is part of the text, but a character picker should identify each mark by name. Recopy the sample “CSS escape sequence: 201C 201D,” confirm the final text still contains U+201C U+201D, and check that the visible heading names Speech Marks. This final check protects Speech Marks Symbol from font substitution, accidental character loss, and intent drift.
