"Give me your hand," she said.EDIT:No, the comma definitely goes INSIDE the quotation marks; that's no mistake. Check out the sources below.

It s/b "Give me your hand", she said. Or. She said, "Give me your hand". Always remember to put the period or comma outside the quotation marks. One of the most common mistakes is putting the period or comma before the last quotation mark.

The proper way to form that sentence would be:"Give me your hand," she said.Always indent five spaces, or use the tab for any dialog- related sentences before writing them (Y/A won't let you do either). Do the same for starting a new paragraph. Quotations go around the verbalized written statement, and if one is quoting with in a quote, an apostrophe is used ('). The comma goes in front of the closing quotation mark i.e (,").
