I have been trying to learn punctuation lately but it seems the more I read the more it makes me confused.
First of all, tell me what is the difference between a quotation mark and an apostrophe. Elaborate with example if you can.
Secondly, what is an appropriate way of using quotation in a sentence with correct punctuation.
Thirdly, will full stop or question mark come after the quotation mark or before. For example, Founder of this nation said, "Hope for best and prepare for worst". Is this proper punctuated sentence or Founder of this nation said, "Hope for best and prepare for worst."
I have read sentence in which quotation mark comes before full stop or question mark but then I also found quotation mark after the full stop in some sentence. This has confused me and I am not able to understand the rule. Kindly elaborate with example.
