== လၢႆးၸႂ်ႉတိုဝ်း ==
The '''{{tc|' "}}''' or '''{{tc|Single+double}}''' template is to be used whenever a single-quotation mark (') would be followed by a double-quotation mark ("), most commonly found in nested quotations (e.g., {{tq|"I never told the kids, 'Stay outta school{{' "}}, Bob implored.}}), or when a double-quoted passage terminates with an apostrophe (e.g., {{tq|In 1961, the Beach Boys recorded two demo songs, "Surfin{{' "}} and "Surfin' Safari".}}) Its purpose is to place a slight space in between the single and double quotation marks for legibility, without actually inserting a space character. It does this with [[Cascading style sheets|CSS]], and does so because the insertion of an extraneous space character of any kind (e.g., {{code|&nbsp;}} or {{code|&thinsp;}}) would violate the [[Semantic web|semantic integrity of web content]] in an article or another page in which it appears.

;Example (with highlighting added for clarity):

*Using this template:
::<code>Smith was reported to have said, "I think the public will not agree with your 'innovative solution{{stronggood|<nowiki>{{' "}}</nowiki>}}, in the March 3 debate.</code>
::Smith was reported to have said, "I think the public will not agree with your 'innovative solution{{' "}}, in the March 3 debate.

*For comparison, here is the less desirable, completely unspaced version:
::<code>Smith was reported to have said, "I think the public will not agree with your 'innovative solution{{strongbad|'"}}, in the March 3 debate.</code>
::Smith was reported to have said, "I think the public will not agree with your 'innovative solution'", in the March 3 debate.

*Compare also the version with a semantically-incorrect non-breaking space character:
::<code>Smith was reported to have said, "I think the public will not agree with your 'innovative solution{{strongbad|'&amp;nbsp;"}}, in the March 3 debate.</code>
::Smith was reported to have said, "I think the public will not agree with your 'innovative solution'&nbsp;", in the March 3 debate.

*And finally, compare this visually appealing but also semantically-incorrect version, using a "thin space" character:
::<code>Smith was reported to have said, "I think the public will not agree with your 'innovative solution{{strongbad|'&amp;thinsp;"}}, in the March 3 debate.</code>
::Smith was reported to have said, "I think the public will not agree with your 'innovative solution'&thinsp;", in the March 3 debate.

As rendered, the non-breaking-spaced and thin-spaced versions may look similar or the same as the templated version, but they improperly mix content and presentation.

To properly achieve similar results within parameters of a template that automatically wraps the value in double-quotes (e.g. {{para|title}} in {{tl|cite web}}), use the {{tn|'-}} or {{tl|Single+space}} template.  See also the related templates, {{tn|" '}} and {{tn|'}} for the left-hand side versions (manual and parameter, respectively).
