The level 2 are “...” (english quotes). Only in some cases, and according to some writers and manuals, single quotation marks ‘...’ are correct as 1 level quotes (left single quotation mark ... right single quotation mark), in short segments, generally when you want to indicate the translation of a term. i.e.: car (‘coche’) Anyway, in Spanish it is not correct to use second level quotes “...” as first-level quotes. I do not know if it is correct in German. Best regards, Juan Manuel
