Title of book: Our Magnificent Bastard Tongue
Author: John McWhorter
Page number: 22
Quote: “While the Vikings were mangling English , Welsh and Cornish people were seasoning it . Their rendition of English mixed their native grammars with English …”
If you plan to quote the source, be sure to copy the exact words, spelling, capitalization, and punctuation that are used in the source.If you want to paraphrase something, include the original quote and then rewrite it in your own words. Here is an example:
Title of book: The Language Instinct
Author: Steven Pinker
Page number: 26
Quote: “The universality of complex language is a discovery that fills linguists with awe, and is the first reason to suspect that language is not just any cultural invention but the product of a special human instinct.”
Paraphrase: One reason many linguists believe language is an innate ability is that it is found in all human cultures.
