About the single low-9 quotation mark symbol

The single low-9 quotation mark is a curved or comma-shaped punctuation mark that sits on the baseline of text, opening downward like a small inverted comma. It is used primarily in some European languages, such as German and Czech, as the opening quotation mark in paired quotation systems, where it is matched with a closing high quotation mark. Its shape distinguishes it from the more common apostrophe or single high quotation mark, which sit above the baseline.
