So bascially a footnote is used to cite sources and such? I think thats what my teacher was going for but it didn't make any sense when she said it and i have never used a footnote before.

What if I have a footnote in the end of the sentence. Will I have no spaces between the footnote, the dot and the last word or will I have a space between the word and the footnote?

But I want my footnotes together at the end of the chapter - not the bottom of the page or end of the document. How do I do that?

question: what if the information in the foot notew need to be citated aswell how do i mark it in MLA style?

Well, I only know hot to put those footnotes. Put a cursor there, where you want to place ur footnote and then push the "add footnote". I tried not to write many of them, cause there would be so many. I wanted to add the reference there, including the author of the book and page numbers. I decided to write more than one reference in 1 footnote. So, I got less than hm, 10 FNs I think. Though It would be great if there was a way to start from no. 1 on each page. maybe someone knows how to do that?
