When citing, the square bracket is used to show that the quotation was intentionally omitted, as it is not relevant for the topic at the moment: […]
The reader then knows that something was omitted. This is necessary in scientific work, because one has to be exact.
Example:
Dr. Brönhausen, who worked very successfully at the University of Wiesbaden for 12 years, considers that the color of heaven has a direct effect on the psyche.
Quote with omission: “Dr. Brönhausen […] believes that the color of heaven has a direct effect on the psyche.”
When citing, it is also possible to use the square bracket if the original statement contains, for example, spelling or grammar errors, but it is not possible to correct them, because it is necessary to cite them original. You then write behind it [sic!] to make it clear that one of the mistakes is aware.
The round clamp is usually used if you want to add something. This could often be different, e.g. with an auxiliary or an indent.
Example:
The dog likes to play with the small red ball (the larger blue he doesn’t like).
The dog likes to play with the small red ball, with the larger blue he doesn’t like.
The dog likes to play with the small red ball – the bigger blue he doesn’t like!
The round clamp is the basic form in the text. You can read it on duden.de.
The square bracket is used either as a bracket within a bracket or for non-textual items, such as source information. The square bracket thus takes a piece out of the text and speaks you directly as a reader.
While the round explains a statement, the square is a scissors that cut out a bit.
Hello,
The square bracket is used when you change quotations.
The round as a marking of an addition (like an additional info).
Love
in mathematics only the round clamp and often to clearly depict it the outside clamp square.
Greetings.
And away from mathematics, so in grammar?
On the other hand, you tell the highly venerated audience,
in which context this is meant.
I only know that one often takes squares for sources and rounds for comments… but I don’t know if it’s fixed.
