In [[MLT]], the '''{{w|apostrophe}}''' is mainly used as a syllable separator | In [[MLT]], the '''{{w|apostrophe}}''' is mainly used as a syllable separator. It is required when removal makes finding syllable boundaries incorrect, difficult, or impossible (starting from the right). Apostrophes may be omitted when the syllables would still be discerned, or left in place for better readability. We have not found clear rules to govern this process for all cases. Here are a few cases from the EDUTECH website where the apostrophe is sometimes left in place: {{x|chviaf'mng}}, {{x|cid'ee}}, and {{x|tøf'ui}} (for {{x|chviafmng}}, {{x|cidee}}, and {{x|tøfui}}, respectively). | ||
