--- Comment #5 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tie...@documentfoundation.org> --- German has this elision as well. Examples are: eigne (eigene/own), ewge (ewige/eternal) and while the first example is readable without the apostrophe it would be a challenge for the second (ew'ge). Stylistic elision are usually not identified with an apostrophe (but people often wrongly add superfluous apostrophes). For other languages see [1]. For English the words because and cause come in mind where 'cause could be the colloquial form or the actual meaning. I don't see that we can cover all cases. And ultimately isn't it a question for the auto-correction? [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elision -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
