Quotes are a form of expression that can be used to convey a message or emotion. Quotes are often attributed to famous people, and they can be found in literature, speeches, and other forms of communication. The term 'quotes' can be broken down into two words: AIR (3 letters) and CITES (5 letters). AIR is an acronym for 'Attributed In-text Reference, ' which is a way of citing a quote within the text of a document. CITES stands for 'CITATION, ' which is the act of attributing a quote to its original source.
