Common Mistakes

⚠️

Mistake: Using straight quotes (") instead of curly quotes (“ ”) in prose

Fix: Straight quotes are fine for code but look unprofessional in displayed text. Use “ and ” for opening and closing curly double quotes in English prose.

⚠️

Mistake: Using the wrong quote style for the language

Fix: Different languages use different quotation styles: English uses “...”, French uses «...» (guillemets), German uses „...“, Japanese uses 「...」. Use the correct style for your content language.
