In the name of Allah

Hello dears,
sorry for not replying earlier, I have a lot to do and overcome
really, this semester is too difficult
I'm getting lost in the terrific courses begins with the writing nightmare and ends with :( << I need to cryyyy :(

Sorry for the gloomy introduction I began with.. but thinking of my subjects gets me teary

Dear all,
thanks for your addings, as for the MLA & APA

I'm also confused about them, but I'll give you the examples that were given by our instructor

this is the summary and I'll highlight the important things..

Recently, fathers and mothers can choose the gender of thier child through DNA methods.aaa

(MLA)<<this kind of citing requires the auther's last name + the page number


Here you'll be asked to write all the info within the :

1- Shoaib states on page eight in her 2000 book DNA Technical that recently fathers and mothers...methods. aaa

here half- half you'll write the summary between the author's last name and the page number between parenthesis

2-Shoaib states that recently...methods (8).aaa

Here the whole info between parenthesis at the end:

3-Recently, fathers and mothers ... methods (Shoaib 8).aaa


(APA) <<the most important thing is to mention the author's last name and the date of publication.aaa

Here the same thing with MLA you must write every info is given
1- Shoaib states on page eight in her 2000 book DNA Technical that recently fathers and mothers...methods. aaa

in APA half half the date between parenthesis should follows the author's last name immediately

2-Shoaib (2000) states...methods.aaa


In APA, you must write the comma before the date:

3-Recently, fathers and mothers ... methods (Shoab, 2000)aa


I hope you understand from those examples

O Allah bless, guide and help us

best wishes,

Jasmine
