Okay, so when writing a paper for english class, how do we know when to use just one of these ' rather than two of them ("). Like when you write something you would use air quotes around while speaking it, do you just use one mark (the apostrophe mark) or two (the quotation mark) around the term. Such as in The Taming Of The Shrew they talk about taming someone. Since you technically can't tame somebody, would you write tame like 'tame' or like "tame"?

Do you catch my drift? (link)
sorry! i misunderstood. the explanation is long and the to are used in different situations, but here's a website that tells when to use each one that is easy to understand. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quotation_mark

I wasn't asking which to use, I was asking when you use them.
