Blockquote expressions, common phrases

Quote

To repeat or reproduce a statement made by someone else.
Example: She quoted a famous line from the movie during her speech.
Note: While 'blockquote' specifically refers to a visually distinct section of quoted text, 'quote' is a more general term for repeating or reproducing a statement.

Cite

To refer to or quote as an authority or example.
Example: Make sure to cite your sources when writing a research paper.
Note: While 'blockquote' refers to visually presenting quoted text, 'cite' focuses on referencing sources or experts to support a claim or statement.

Extract

To take or pull out a passage or segment from a larger text.
Example: I need to extract that paragraph and include it in my report.
Note: Unlike 'blockquote' which emphasizes visually setting apart quoted text, 'extract' implies physically removing a section for use elsewhere.

Paraphrase

To restate a text or passage in different words, often to simplify or clarify the meaning.
Example: Can you paraphrase this passage to make it easier to understand?
Note: While 'blockquote' involves directly quoting text, 'paraphrase' involves restating the information in one's own words.

Reference

Example: She provided a reference to support her argument.
Note: Unlike 'blockquote,' which visually presents quoted text, 'reference' refers to citing a source or authority to back up a claim or point.

Grab

Example: I'll grab a couple of lines from the article to support my argument.
Note: The informal nature of 'grab' contrasts with the formal connotation of 'blockquote'.
