to indicate that words were removed, we need to use the ellipsis mark. It is made of three consecutive dots in the place where the word/s should be. Depending on the type of work (formal or informal) you might find the dots between square brackets

For example: "the park that I loved was near my house"
Ellipsis: "the park ... was near my house".
Ellipsis with square brackets: " the park […] was near my house".
