Smart Quotes?
For authors: Smart (or curly) quotes match market standards and makes for a more polished manuscript. Here is a quote from Butterick’s Practical Typography on the issue:
Straight vs. curly quotes. Butterick’s Practical Typography states "Straight quotes are the two generic vertical quotation marks located near the return key: the straight single quote ( ' ) and the straight double quote ( " ). Curly quotes (“ ” ‘ ’ ) are the quotation marks used in good typography.
An interpunct: ·
:·)
:·(
∄ = There does not exist
∃ = There exists
Curly single: ‘ and ’
Straight single: '
Curly double: “ ”
Straight double: " "
Different version of curly quotes: ❛ ❜ ❝ ❞
Em or En Dash?
*** Em dash: —
A pair of em dashes can replace a pair of parentheses or a colon
*** En dash (shorter): –
The en dash is used to represent a span or range of numbers, dates, or time. There are spaces between the en dash and the adjacent material.
