Sure!

In Python, the backtick symbol (`) is not used to surround code. Instead, we use either single quotes (') or double quotes ("). The choice between these two is simply a matter of preference or style.

For example, to define a string variable containing the word 'hello', we can write:

                    
message = 'hello'
                  

or

                    
message = "hello"
                  

Both of these are valid ways to enclose the string 'hello' in quotes.

When we want to include a quote character inside our string, we need to use the opposite type of quote to surround the string.

For example:

                    
message = "She said, 'hello.'"
                  

Here, we use double quotes to enclose the entire string because we want to include single quotes inside the string.

I hope this explanation helps! Let me know if you have any more questions.
