I'd appreciate it very much if anyone would clarify the role of 「と」 here.

    "と” is a postpositional particle that can be used to mark when someone says something, always coming after the quotation.

    Thanks... Such simple information, and yet leaves those of us out in the cold so frustrated and guessing. Much appreciated.

      It marked me wrong for typing 彼女（かのじょ） in kanji. I've reported it.

          「彼女ははいと言いました。」 isn't accepted.

          Does it sound unnatural to say 彼女は「ええ」と言いました。? It is not accepted.
