About the right single quotation mark symbol
A curved closing quotation mark that curls to the right, resembling an inverted comma or a small figure 9 placed high on the line. It functions as the standard closing single quotation mark in English and many other languages, typically paired with an opening single quotation mark at the beginning of a quoted passage or a quote within a quote.
This character also commonly serves as the typographic apostrophe, replacing the straight apostrophe in professional typesetting. It appears in contractions, possessives, and other shortened word forms, where its rightward curve distinguishes it from an opening quotation mark.
