What is a "single quotation mark"?
A single quotation mark (‘ ’) is a punctuation mark used to enclose a quotation within a quotation or to indicate a specific term or phrase. For example, in the sentence, “He called it ‘the best day ever,’” the single quotation marks highlight the specific phrase being referred to within the larger statement. Single quotation marks can also be used to highlight a specific word or phrase, often to denote irony or special meaning, such as in "The 'best' option is not always the best." They help to clearly differentiate between different levels of quotations or to emphasize particular words in writing.
