There are different opinions about how second level quotation marks should look like in French typography, but none of these opinions is about using U+0027 APOSTROPHE. It might be either “like this” or ‹ like this ›, see also <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillemet#Double_ou_triple_niveau_de_citation">https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillemet#Double_ou_triple_niveau_de_citation</a>. Also LibreOffice’s fr_FR.xml seems a little bit strange in this sense. Anyway, for the normal apostrophe usage, always U+2019 RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK is the right choise.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
