Usage notes

 * Never pronounced.
 * When the final -o is replaced by an apostrophe, the word is stressed in the syllable that was the penultimate before the omission, thus the new final syllable.
 * Almost exclusively used in poetry and proverbs. In ordinary language it is barely used, and many Esperantists might even not understand it.
 * The apostrophe itself is sometime omitted by some poets, but this is considered non-standard and may create confusion.

Usage notes

 * More properly encoded as, but is ubiquitous in computing for technical reasons and also used on Wiktionary for normalization purposes.
 * Called.
 * When used to represent a syllable break, the apostrophe is omitted if the word is hyphenated at the syllable break ( &rarr; ). It is however included in the other two cases.
