Need help with punctuation (will give 10pts easy)?

Question

For example, if I am saying:

what punctuation marks would I use around ethnocentrism. Would it be 'ethnocentrism' or "ethnocentrism"?

Answer 6

no silly! you use " " around quotes from individuals!

Dad said, "Girl, get that kangaroo back inside the pen!"

See??

You would write:

The term ethnocentrism is commonly defined as...

or, SOME people might let you get away with

The term 'ethnocentrism' is commonly defined as...

OR , and this is pushing it,

italics on the word ethnocentrism.

but i wouldnt put anything.
