Initialisms and Quotation Marks

Which of the follow is correct? 

  • CAYA stands for “come as you are.” 
  • “CAYA” stands for “come as you are.”               

I am not referring to the Nirvana song, so I assume that capitalization is not necessary when spelling out what the initialism stands for.

There is no need to put quotation marks around a capitalized acronym. The capitalization already makes it stand out.

The correct format would be:

CAYA stands for “come as you are.”

Here's why:

Initialism: CAYA is the initialism and does not need quotation marks.
Quotation Marks for Explanation: The phrase "come as you are" is in quotation marks to denote that it is the expanded form of the initialism.
Capitalization: The phrase "come as you are" is not a proper noun, so it does not need to be capitalized unless it is a title or part of a title.
So, "CAYA stands for “come as you are.”" is the most appropriate way to present it. For more tips on writing and grammar, consider visiting https://essaywritercheap.org/research-paper-writing-service/ for professional assistance.

Hi there! I’ve been diving into the slots section on https://slotscity.ua/ru/slots, and I’m loving every minute of it. The selection is fantastic, with a mix of both classic and modern slots that keep things interesting. The graphics are sharp, and the gameplay is smooth, making it easy to get lost in the excitement. I’ve already found a few favorites, and I’m looking forward to discovering even more great games here.
