These are used to quote sentences, words, speeches and dialogues.Example:
"Ang ganda ko," wika ni Corlea.8. Dialogue Tags
Ginagamit ito upang malaman kung sino ang nagsabi ng dialogue. Sa dialogue tag ay kadalasang ginagamit ang mga sumusunod: sabi, sambit, saad, wika, ani, at iba pa. Pinaghihiwalay ang mga salita gamit ang "comma", "question marks" o "exclamation marks". Habang ang kasunod na salita naman ay nagsisimula sa maliit na titik, kung hindi pangalan ang kasunod.Example:
"Ang cute ko," wika ni Niki.
"Ang hangin naman dito," bulong ni Thena.9. Action Tags
Hindi katulad sa dialogue tags, "period" ang ginagamit dito. Para malaman na action tag ito, action words dapat ang kasunod dito.Example:
"Makaligo na nga." Tumayo ako at saka dumiretso sa banyo.10. Italics
These are used to draw attention to a particular part.Example:
For two years, she never said 'I love you too'.
