7.4.1

When division at a linebreak is necessary following the solidus (forward slash), do not insert a hyphen.

7.5.1

In the majority of cases, a question mark does not require a grade 1 symbol indicator; however, be mindful of the situations covered in Rules 7.5.2 to 7.5.4 below.

7.5.2

Place a grade 1 symbol indicator before a question mark which appears in a position where it would be read as the wordsign "his" or where it would be read as an opening one-cell (nonspecific) quotation mark.

7.5.3

Place a grade 1 symbol indicator before a question mark which is "standing alone".

7.5.4

Place a grade 1 symbol indicator before a question mark which follows a space, hyphen or dash. Any of the punctuation and indicator symbols listed in 2.6.2 of Section 2, Terminology and General Rules, may intervene between the space, hyphen or dash and the question mark.

7.6.2

For secondary or inner quotation marks (that is those other than the predominant quotation marks in the text), use the specific two-cell symbols.

7.6.3

A pair of opening and closing quotation marks should match. For example, when a specific opening quotation mark is required, then the specific closing symbol is also used.

7.6.4

When an opening nonspecific quotation mark would be read as the wordsign "his", use the appropriate specific quotation mark instead.

7.6.5

Use one-cell (nonspecific) quotation marks when apostrophes are used as the predominant quotation marks in print. Use specific single quotation marks when apostrophes are used as the secondary or inner quotation marks in print. However, when in doubt as to whether a mark is an apostrophe or a single quotation mark, treat it as an apostrophe.

7.6.7

If the opening one-cell (nonspecific) quotation mark appears in grade 1 mode, it will be read as a question mark. To avoid this, place the one-cell opening quotation mark before rather than after any grade 1 indicator. If this isn't possible, use the appropriate specific quotation mark.
