including assembly language routines in c

Is it possible to include assembly language routines in
C if I'm using a compiler which has an assembler such as gcc? could I include them in a main function or would I have to write a seperate function? what kind of privilege level would be required to execute
a program with assembly in it? how would I denote that the following
code is assembly and thus shouldn't be checked for syntax errors?
