inside quotation marks
a third system, known as "logical quotation", is strict about not including terminal punctuation within the quotation marks unless it was also found in the quoted material. some writers conflate logical quotation and the common british style (which actually permits some variation, such as replacement of an original full stop with a comma or vice versa, to suit the needs of the quoting sentence, rather than moving the non-original punctuation outside the quotation marks). for example, "the chicago manual of style", 14th ed.: "the british style is strongly advocated by some american language experts. whereas there clearly is some risk with question marks and exclamation points, there seems little likelihood that readers will be misled concerning the period or comma." it goes on to recommend "british" or logical quotation for fields such as linguistics, literary criticism, and technical writing, and also notes its use in philosophy texts.
