Comments:
A word is delimited by one or more spaces, tabs, or returns, or enclosed by
double quotes. A single word can contain multiple characters and multiple
items, but not multiple lines.
Note:Words are delimited by double quotes ("), but not by curved quotes ("").
LiveCode does not treat curved quotes as quotes.
Under the Dictionary entry for trueWord it says this:

breaks, as determined by the ICU Library.
There is an imperfection in the Dictionary entry for ‘words’, its comments
includes this:
Comments:

which doesn’t state anything about the double quotes.
