Yahoo Answers is shutting down on 4 May 2021 (Eastern Time) and the Yahoo Answers website is now in read-only mode. There will be no changes to other Yahoo properties or services, or your Yahoo account. You can find more information about the Yahoo Answers shutdown and how to download your data on this help page.
Just what is this rubbish, (') that so many have in their answers?
It appears instead of apostrophes in most cases!
So, does anyone who has read this use a smart phone, because that sounds like a reasonable explanation!

That is a minor but annoying glitch in the system, instead of the apostrophe you see the html entity for the apostrophe. Yahoo is aware of the problem, but hasn't found a fix for it yet. Based on reports of other users it looks though as if the problem could be related to the Internet Explorer, possibly also to Chrome - so far there hasn't been a single report yet by a FireFox user, so maybe switching to the FF could solve such a problem...

Thanks Patty, I have found it happens even on Yahoo on my desk top, I find the commas have been changed if I decide to edit and answer, so it must be a Yahoo problem, but not surprised they haven't found how to fix it!

It's to show that your English, we cant call it English, is very poor.
Stay in your own country and explose yourself.
