Single rather than double quotation marks. I don't get what you mean. Both have their uses. And yes, people quite often get that wrong, too.

In standard American style and usage, the hierarchy of quotation marks is reversed, relative to English style and usage (double quotation marks on the outside and single quotation marks within, to denote a quote within a quote).

We all know that someday you boys will come back, tail between your legs, BEGGING, pleading with us to admit you to the Commonwealth of Nations. The current dominance of the United Kingdom as not only an economic, but also policy, powerhouse renders this conclusion inevitable. Not one but TWO Houses of Parliament packed to the gunwales with such intellectual giants as the current crop mean that Britain's dominance on the world stage is ensured for the remainder of the time remaining to humanity on this planet.

I'd take that deal, provided we don't have to eat the food, you promise not to put surveillance cameras on every corner, and get those copyright issues cleared up so that they can broadcast QI in the states.
