What punctuation are put around a spoken word?

Spoken words are typically enclosed in quotation marks.

There are two common types of quotation marks:

* Double quotation marks (" ") are used for direct quotations.

* Single quotation marks (' ') are used for quotations within quotations.

For example:

* "Hello, how are you?" she said.

* He asked, "Did you see the 'For Sale' sign?"
