Apostrophe in french and aspeller
The automatic correction for french has a glitch for french apostrophe.
ex: J’espère que l’abeille sera l’oreille n’est-ce pas ? is good but it’s marked wrong for each apostrophe in PopPeeper.
The sentence is correct as Live Writer shows:
Update: I found the reason of the problem. In french, you need to use a typographic apostrophe ’ - by default, Windows gives only english apostrophe. Typographic apostrophe is not well known even in France because the keyboards and Windows drivers does not propose it. So you have to use a custom keyboard mapping. And I use one. So I use typographic apostrophe as every french people should but the correction does not know it so it’s marked wrong.
