For example, the following is a direct quotation about our village from "Origin of village name in Chamorro" in the website, Guampedia. Notice the quotation marks at the beginning and ending of the quotation. When you include this in your writing, your reader knows you borrowed the words from someone else.
"The meaning of 'Yigo' is unclear. According to some it comes from the Spanish word yugo which means yoke (the type used to secure a carabao to a cart or plow)."
