INVERTED COMMAS

Inverted commas are used for speech e.g. William shouted, ''When's my fish and chips coming!".

BUT when you're speaking in inverted commas, you don't have to be grammatically correct e.g. "Wot ya doin' bruv," said John. That's because you're showing their speech.

Another name for inverted commas is quotation marks, but inverted commas are more formal.
