The right quotation=20 mark is a raised comma, and the left quotation mark is an raised comma=20 rotated by 180 degrees. In many (but not all) fonts, the shape of a comma= =20 is more or less that of a triangle with an obtuse angle at the top left,=20 that is, slanted to the right. When you rotate such a shape by 180=20 degrees, it is again slanted to the right. > > And how do you distinguish between =E2=80=98 and =E2=80=99 with that font= ? > Because the thick part (aka the dot) of =E2=80=98 is at the bottom of the= =20 character, and the thick part of =E2=80=99 is at the top of the character. --uLJxSaXpoN--
