Answer

False. Even if you provide a citation, omitting quotation marks around a direct quote *is* plagiarism. You are presenting the words as your own, even though you've acknowledged the source. A citation alone is insufficient; you must also correctly indicate which words are directly taken from the source using quotation marks.<br />
