Quoting and Paraphrasing Quick Check

1. Quoting: taking someone else's exact words and putting them in quotation marks.

Example: According to Martin Luther King Jr., "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."

2. Paraphrasing: rephrasing someone else's ideas or words in your own words.

Example: Martin Luther King Jr. expressed his vision of a future where his children would be evaluated based on their character rather than their race.
