Which term means a quotation from or reference to a book, paper, or author, especially in a scholarly work?

Cite

Citation

When scholars point to a source, the reference itself is called a citation. It names where an idea or quotation comes from—author, work, and often page details—so readers can locate the source. “Cite” is the verb form—what you do when you reference a source—not the noun describing the reference. “Analyze” means to examine something in detail, which isn’t about referencing sources. “Audience” refers to the readers, not the source reference. So the term that fits the description is citation.

Analyze

Audience
