I think you should mark it up with a xml-tag or a LaTeX command. In LaTeX I use \q so for example: \q{This is a quotation and \q{red} is a word.} This would automatically result in ``This is a quotation and `red' is a word'' and if the text is in Swedish the quotes are in the same direction so it would be ''Detta är ett citat och 'röd' är ett ord''.
