How to paste in my gmail

[Android Central Question]

I press down and press copy. When I go to my gmail I press to paste but nothing happens.
How do I cut and paste to my g mail?

Welcome to Android Central! What are you copying -- something you typed, or is it text from some website or app? Are you able to paste elsewhere, like in Google Keep Notes, or in a document in Google Docs?
