Sometimes, apostrophes may collide with certain characters such as lowercase ''d''{{`s}} and ''l''{{`s}}, especially after '''bold''' (<code><nowiki>'''</nowiki></code>) or ''italic'' (<code><nowiki>''</nowiki></code>) text. In these cases, {{tlx|`|plaincode}} and {{plaincode|<nowiki>{{`s}}</nowiki>}} can be used to prevent such collisions. This template is the same as {{tlx|'s|plaincode}} except that it inserts a small amount of space before the apostrophe.
