Sample of Written Citations in an Essay

Sample of Written Citations in an EssayAlthough the author of this article is not an instructor of APA style, he/she can share a sample of written citations in an essay that follows APA style. You should note that this example will not be an exact mimic of the actual way that you should cite your sources.If you read this example, you may find that you can't immediately convert the citation you are about to cite into an APA style citation. The citation itself should be used as a guide only, and not as the sole factor for the essay. This is not because the APA is ungrammatical; but because, in general, a student would not like to write a scholarly essay, if the same style has been used.By using this example as a sample of written citations in an essay, you will be able to learn how to cite your sources, if you are going to write a scholarly essay. The writer will be able to follow a citation format that will be acceptable, if they have never used a citation in their entire academic car eer. However, they may not be able to write exactly the same way as the author of this article. Still, there are some points that they can consider using.The author of this article points out that the most important aspect of a citation, which you should remember when you are going to write a citation in an essay, is the first word of the paragraph. In this example, that word is 'where.' It is very important that you have it in your own paragraphs. However, it is also very important that you do not change it into a double italicised font.The second most important aspect of a citation, that you should remember, is to make sure that the citation is fully enclosed within double quotes. If you want to use a double italicised font in your citation, you need to use the APA style of italics. If you want to use a single bold font, you need to use APA style bold. The same goes for another common APA style citation: 'in which.'Finally, the author of this article advises that the final part of the paragraph where you cite your sources, must have a comma following it. This will provide a cue to the reader, who is reading your citation, that the citation is in fact a reference. This is particularly true when your paragraph begins with the term 'Where, in accordance with APA Style,' as in the example that was provided earlier.This author of this article is very concerned about readers being confused by a citation that does not follow APA style, and therefore, the author of this article will share a sample of written citations in an essay that follows APA style. This example will help you when you write citations in an essay.A sample of written citations in an essay that follows APA style is as follows: 'In compliance with APA Style, this is the opinion of the author. All rights reserved.'
