Etymology
The word 'quote' originates from the Latin 'quotare', meaning 'to mark a number' or 'to specify a number'. This evolved through Old French into Middle English, where it took on the meaning of 'to declare' or 'to cite'. The transition of 'quote' into verb form has led to different usages, including its past tense forms, 'quoted' and the nonstandard variant 'quoited'. The use of 'quoted' has become dominant in English, aligning with the standard grammatical conventions. As language evolves, variations like 'quoited' sometimes emerge in colloquial speech but are often regarded as incorrect in formal writing.
