# 't

In the Dutch language, the word 't (Dutch pronunciation:) is a contraction of the article "het", meaning "the". 't can be found as a tussenvoegsel, a word that is positioned between a person's first and last name. Careful writers should use an apostrophe (U+2019 ’ ) in front of the t – and not confuse it with a left quotation mark (U+2018 ‘ ) and put a space before the apostrophe.
