====Hearsay and quotative====
====Hearsay and quotative====
The '''hearsay''' ({{sc|hear}}) and '''quotative''' ({{sc|quot}}) evidentials denot when an occurrence only can be confirmed only through hearsay and that it may not necessarily be accurate, or when used when citing a second or third hand source. Most often believed to be accurate and not open for interpretation. Compare the difference in the English phrases "''It is said''" and ''"I was told''".
