Author Topic: how the forget am i supposed to write in MLA format?  (Read 6168 times)

if you're not sure what MLA formatting is, it's typing in this structure.



i'm supposed to WRITE in this format in two 15 line boxes



also notice how it says TYPED MLA


I know it's not supposed to be typed, and it also gives two text boxes. how the forget am I supposed to write in 12pt times new roman??????

i don't understand why my handicapped school has to make things way too confusing

if you set it up right you should be able to stick that paper in your printer and print a word document with some text right in those boxes

It means double spaced, for the most part. Do that and you should be golden.

i'll probably just do this so I don't have to write much.

MLA mostly has to do with how works cited is formatted. If you're writing an brown townysis of a play (?) then that's subjective and you're not going to have works to cite


Also why are you asking us? Ask your teacher.

ahh the crucible. abigail williams is a psycho mofo

this is literally the worst place to ask that question

Then just write it as you see it, don't double space because those lines are big enough to be easy on the eyes assuming your handwriting isn't total stuff.

Do the usual upper left stuff, put the last name page number up in the far right corner kinda smaller (I think it's in some edition 7 or 8 that you don't need it for one page papers), title, and begin writing.

At my school we carve rocks so we don't have to put up with this bullstuff.

the assignment says to type it but then it has a text box??

yeah confirm with teacher if you're meant to skip lines on the written test. I highly doubt it though. MLA would probably refer to how you inline cite parts of the book/play and such.

type your essay, cut it out with safety scissors, glue it on (glue sticks only)

Why not just use double sided tape?
