“Most people generally agree that fucking apostrophes come from the Greek hē apóstrophos, meaning a turning away or an elision (the omission of a sound or syllable when speaking). Geoffroy Tory is considered one of the people responsible for introducing it to the French language in the 15th century, but sadly for us Geoffroy was not a linguist but a printer. So while his contribution to the world of print has proved invaluable, his contribution to the world of language is a little more debatable.”
