==Usage==
This template uses the [[List of XML and HTML character entity references|decimal code]] for the apostrophe or single-quote character so that it doesn't become interpreted with adjacent italics (<code><nowiki>''</nowiki></code>) or bold (<code><nowiki>'''</nowiki></code>) wiki markup. This situation most commonly arises when taking the possessive of titles that [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style (text formatting)#Italic face|should be italicized]]. <code><nowiki>{{'}}</nowiki></code> is shorter than <code><nowiki><nowiki>'</nowiki></nowiki></code> and clearer than an unadorned <code><nowiki>&amp;#39;</nowiki></code>.

This template leaves leading space before the apostrophe, unlike the similar {{tl|`}} (no spacing). This template is intended for use with ''[[Italic type|italic]]'' text, whereas {{tl|`}} is intended for use with non-italic text. For example:
* <code><nowiki>The ''Iliad''{{'}}s vocabulary is archaic.</nowiki></code>
generates:
* The ''Iliad''{{'}}s vocabulary is archaic.
with a tiny amount of space before the apostrophe to avoid colliding with the italic ''d'' at the end of ''Iliad''. Conversely, {{tl|`}} should be used if the text is already italicized. For example:
* <code><nowiki>''The ''Iliad''{{`}}s vocabulary is archaic.''</nowiki></code>
generates:
* ''The ''Iliad''{{`}}s vocabulary is archaic.''
without the extra space, which would be distracting here.

This template is also similar to {{tl|-'}}, used to slightly space apart a leading single quote from a surrounding double quotation mark provided by a template parameter in which the content is placed, e.g. the {{para|title}} parameter of {{tl|cite web}}.  The equivalent template when manually placing double quotes around a single-quoted passage is {{tl|" '}}; see also {{tl|'-}} and {{tl|' "}} for the right-hand side equivalents (parameter and manual, respectively).  All of these templates use 0.2em of spacing, while {{tl|'}}, this template, uses only 0.1em of spacing, as does {{'s}}, which is used for possessives in italics.
