Now, things get a bit more interesting when you have three or more authors. In this case, you'll use the first author's name followed by "et al." - which is short for "et alii," a fancy Latin phrase that means "and others." So, if you're citing a source with three or more authors, your citation might look like this: (Johnson et al. 12).
But wait, there's a twist! If you're citing a source with three authors in your Works Cited page, you'll list all three authors' names, separated by commas. For example: Johnson, Sarah, Michael Brown, and Emily Davis. Got it?
Now, you might be wondering what to do if you have multiple sources with the same author and the same publication year. Don't worry, it's not as confusing as it sounds! You'll just add a letter (like "a" or "b") to the year in your citation to differentiate between the two sources.
