't

In the Dutch language, the word 't (Dutch pronunciation: [ət]) is a contraction of the article "het", meaning "the". 't can be found as a tussenvoegsel, a word that is positioned between a person's first and last name. Careful writers should use an apostrophe (U+2019 ) in front of the t – and not confuse it with a left quotation mark (U+2018 ).[1]

Examples

gollark: Okay, why can you not derive it?
gollark: No.
gollark: Yes, because `return` there won't just return a "plain" `Int`.
gollark: https://github.com/babel/babel/pull/3646
gollark: Look at that commit. There is actually a picture in ASCII of someone.
