It may be old, but you'd be suprised how many people it stumps, including ALL of my professors.


(and the last word is "had." not "had". :D )

Actually, according to a couple professors I discussed this with once, there's some contention about this and it's acceptable either way, just as I didn't put the comma inside the quotation mark after "had had" - technically, I'm not quoting the comma or the period, since neither child punctuated their "had".

:p - I'd be interested to hear other's opinions on this, though, since I don't know the real answer, just what I've discussed with the profs.


For bonus points you can throw in four extra "hads".

"John, where Mary had had, "had had", had had, "had". "Had had" had had the examiner's approval."

There are a WHOLE lot of rules concerning punctiation and quotation marks. To Quote Diana Hacker
Always Place periods and commas inside quotation marks. This rule applies to single quotation marks as well as double quotation marks. It also applies to all uses of quotation makrs: for quoted material, for titles of works, and for words used as words. EXCEPTION:In the Modern Language Association's style of parenthetical in-text citations, the period follows the citation in parentheses.

Put colons and semicolons outside quotation marks.

Put question marks and exclamation points inside quotation marks unless they apply to the sentence as a whole.
