FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS









WHAT IS A CITATION?

A citation is a reference to a book, webpage, news article, or any other source
of information used in an academic work. It lets readers of your paper know when
you’re incorporating someone else’s idea or creation into your writing. 

There are three citation styles—MLA, APA, and Chicago. Whether you use MLA
citations, APA citations, or Chicago-style citations depends on your academic
discipline. Plus, there are two types of citations for all styles: in-text
citations and full citations. You use in-text citations in the body of your
paper right after you quote, paraphrase, or reference a source. You use full
citations at the end of the paper, where you list all your sources in what’s
called a bibliography, works cited, or references page (for Chicago-style
citations, MLA citations, and APA citations, respectively).



HOW DO YOU CITE A SOURCE?

How you cite a source varies depending on if you’re using APA citations, MLA
citations, or Chicago-style citations. On top of that, citing sources works
differently for in-text citations versus full citations. A good way to do
citations is to use a free citation generator, like the one at the top of this
page. 

In addition to the free citation generator on this page, you can use Grammarly’s
browser extension to generate citations automatically. This tool instantaneously
generates copy-and-paste-ready citations for you when you visit a compatible
source website like Wikipedia, Frontiers, PLOS One, ScienceDirect, SAGE
Journals, and more. To use Gramamrly’s auto-citations, install the Grammarly
browser extension.

If you’d like to know more about writing citations on your own, you can find
information midway through these pages: Free MLA Citation Generator, Free APA
Citation Generator, and Free Chicago Citation Generator.



WHY DO YOU NEED CITATIONS?

There are a few reasons why you need citations, but the most important is that
you have to credit the authors of the ideas you use in your paper. Otherwise,
you risk plagiarizing. (Fun fact: Grammarly can help detect plagiarism if you
forget a citation. More on that here.) 

Citations are also essential because they support your arguments and ideas and
tell readers of your paper where to find out more about your research.



WHAT IS A CITATION GENERATOR?

A citation generator is an online tool you can use to make accurate citations
quickly. To use the free citation generator above, just fill out the form with
information about a source, like its title, its author(s), and the page numbers
referenced. The free citation generator will then instantly make a citation for
you. You can choose which type of citation format you’d like the free citation
generator to use—MLA, APA, or Chicago—and if you’d like it to make an in-text or
full citation.



WHAT IS A CITATION MACHINE?

Citation machine is just another term for citation generator. It’s an online
tool that makes accurate citations for you when you enter information about a
source. No matter if you're looking for an in-text or full citation or if you’re
doing APA citations, MLA citations, or Chicago-style citations, most citation
machines can do them all. 



WHICH STYLE GUIDE SHOULD I CHOOSE FOR MY ASSIGNMENT?

The style of citation you should use for your assignment depends on your field
of study and your professor’s guidelines. MLA-format citations are typically
used by those in the liberal arts and humanities, APA-format citations are used
for the sciences and education, and Chicago-style citations are usually the
go-to for history, business, and fine arts. Chicago or MLA may be used for other
humanities subjects, like literature and theater. Generally, MLA-format
citations are the preferred style guide for humanities work at the undergraduate
level, whereas Chicago is more common at the graduate level.



WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BIBLIOGRAPHY, REFERENCES, AND WORKS CITED PAGES?

Bibliography, references, and works cited are all the same thing—they’re a list
of full citations for all the sources you used in your research paper. They just
have different names under each citation style. MLA calls this list the “works
cited” page, Chicago calls it the “bibliography,” and APA calls it “references.”
No matter what you call it, this list of full citations goes on a separate page
(or separate pages) at the end of your paper. This way, readers know where to
look if they’d like to find more information about a source you’ve used.



WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FULL CITATIONS, IN-LINE CITATIONS, PARENTHETICAL
CITATIONS, FOOTNOTES, AND ANNOTATIONS, AND WHEN SHOULD I USE EACH?

It may feel confusing to understand what type of citation to use, where, and
when, but don’t worry. It doesn’t take long to get up to speed. Here’s a quick
overview of what you need to know:

Full citations go at the end of your paper in your references, works cited, or
bibliography section (the name changes depending on if you’re using APA, MLA, or
Chicago-style citations). They include all relevant source information a reader
may wish to know. What you should include in a full citation depends on the
source, but it will have information such as the source’s title, author,
publisher, year of publication, URL, and more. You can use Grammarly’s free
citation generator to quickly create accurate full citations in MLA, APA, or
Chicago style.

In-line citations, a.k.a. in-text citations, are abbreviated versions of full
citations. They’re used in the body of a paper right after you reference or
quote a source. You can use Grammarly’s free citation generator for MLA
citations, APA citations, and Chicago-style citations to create in-line
citations in seconds.

Parenthetical citations are a type of in-line citation used by the MLA and APA
formats. To write a parenthetical MLA citation, put the last name of the
source’s author and the page number(s) your information comes from in
parentheses right after you reference or quote a source. To write a
parenthetical APA citation, put the last name of the source’s author, the
source’s publication date, and, if relevant, applicable page numbers in
parentheses right after you reference or quote a source.

Footnotes are a form of in-text citation used in the Chicago format. To create a
footnote, put a superscript numeral right after any text where you’ve quoted or
referenced a source. Then, under a horizontal line at the bottom of the page,
put a full citation preceded by the same numeral used in the superscript. Most
word-processing programs can help you do this formatting automatically.

An annotation is a summary or evaluation of a source placed after a full
citation. You’ll only need to use annotations if you’re doing an annotated
bibliography.
