Insérer les citations : méthodes et règles essentielles

Ce document présente les techniques fondamentales pour insérer une citation dans un texte argumentatif ou une dissertation. Il aborde le signalement des citations, les méthodes d'insertion selon la longueur du passage cité, et le respect dû au texte original.

Le signalement de la citation se fait principalement par l'utilisation des guillemets. Ces marques du discours direct servent à délimiter clairement les passages cités, qu'il s'agisse de mots isolés ou de phrases entières. L'emploi des guillemets est systématique pour encadrer une citation.

Highlight: Les guillemets sont essentiels pour signaler et délimiter toute citation dans un texte.

Concernant les méthodes d'insertion, elles varient selon la longueur de la citation. Pour une citation brève (un mot, une expression isolée ou une phrase courte), on l'intègre directement dans la phrase du commentaire par juxtaposition.

Example: Comment insérer une citation dans une dissertation courte : "Le style, c'est l'homme" affirme Buffon.

Pour une citation longue (une proposition autonome ou plusieurs phrases), plusieurs options sont possibles :

  1. Insérer le passage cité entre guillemets après une proposition introductrice suivie de deux points.
  2. Utiliser une proposition en incise à l'intérieur du passage entre guillemets.
  3. Subordonner la citation à la proposition introductrice, en choisissant un verbe introducteur approprié.
  4. Recourir à la parenthèse.

Vocabulary: Une proposition en incise est une phrase insérée dans une autre pour apporter une précision ou une explication.

Le respect du texte cité est primordial. Entre les guillemets, on doit reproduire exactement la forme du texte original. Tout changement doit être explicitement signalé :

  1. Les coupures sont indiquées par des points de suspension entre crochets : [...].
  2. Les modifications grammaticales imposées par l'insertion de la citation sont signalées par des crochets.
  3. Pour citer des vers, on respecte leur retour à la ligne ou on les sépare par une barre transversale si on les intègre dans la prose.

Quote: "J'égrenais dans ma course/Des rimes."

Ces règles permettent de citer une citation dans un texte de manière claire et respectueuse, en préservant l'intégrité du texte original tout en l'intégrant harmonieusement dans votre propre argumentation.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

Knowunity is the BEST app I’ve used in a minute. This is not an ai review or anything this is genuinely coming from a 7th grade student (I know 2011 im young) but dude this app is a 10/10 i have maintained a 3.8 gpa and have plenty of time for gaming. I love it and my mom is just happy I got good grades

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend
