would it be correct grammer punctuation if you had something in quotation marks twice?

Question

ex:

"he yelled, "Your a gilded fool!""

the outer for it being a quote and the inner for normal rule.
I don't know or would you leave it like this:


"he yelled, "Your a gilded fool!" with only 1 set of quotation marks?

ok i know i messed up the "your" thing i just want to know were the quotation marks go

Answer 1

Speech within a quotation is usually marked as follows:

"He yelled, 'Your a gilded fool!'"

But since you're asking a grammatical question, you might as well know that 'you're' would be be proper in that sentence, as that's the contraction for 'you are', while 'your' denotes posession or ownership.

Answer 2

The correct way to write it is to alternate double and single quotes:

"he yelled, 'You're a gilded fool!' "

If you had another quote within the single quotes up there, you would use another set of double-quotes, and so on.

Answer 3

The inner quotes should be single quotes, like this: '
And you should use both.

"He yelled, 'You're a gilded fool!'" reported the spy.
