How do you show someone speaking inside someone speaking? Example: You're telling a story and x says something in the story, how would you write that?

Answer/Explanation:

For example, you can say this:

"He yelled, 'Go away!' Then he closed the door," she said.

The speaker's dialogue uses " " and the speaker within the dialogue uses ' '.

The same rules of capitalization and formatting apply otherwise.
