Quotation marks --

German: »« ›‹ „“ ‚‘

Warning: Apostrophe is not a closing quotation mark! German and English apostrophe: ’ An apostrophe looks like a superscript German opening quotation mark.

Both for comparison: ‘’

Ellipses (mostly German): …

Halbgeviertstrich (en-dash): –

English quotation marks: “” ‘’

Interesting equivalence: English opening = German closing. Same UTF-8 character.
