What does "'" mean?
Sometimes computers accidentally replace apostrophes with those, so it was meant to be don't, can't etc. but sometimes computers go weird.
And all the world over, each nation's the same,
They've simply no notion of playing the game.
They argue with umpires, they cheer when they've won,
And they practice beforehand, which ruins the fun!

Don't question it, or should I say, don't question it.
Basically I think it's that “'” is essentially a code that stands for an apostrophe, but computers sometimes don't replace it.
