Description

@MDLC01

In French, a hyphen can be added right after an apostrophe, which is incorrect.12

This can be reproduced in Typst with the following code.

#set text(lang: "fr")
#set page(width: 1.8cm)
#set par(justify: true)
Aujourd'hui

Au- // jourd’- // hui

Note that this does not happen when the language is set to English.

Footnotes

  1. Wikipedia (fr) states "On ne coupe jamais à la position d’une apostrophe", which means "One should never hyphen on an apostrophe."
