However,theusageofcurvedquotation(ex.quoteandquote)marksisgrowing.[39]Thatisprobablyduetothe
omnipresenceoftheEnglishlanguageandtotheinabilityofsomemachines(mobilephones,cashregisters,specific
printers,calculators,etc.)todisplaytypographicalquotationmarks.

InBrazil,however,theusageofangularquotationmarksislittleknown,beingusedalmostsolelythecurvedquotation
