Yet another is that > American typography uses "double quotation marks" for quotations, while > European tends to use `single quotation marks'.[2] To be precise, single quotation marks are British style. German quotation marks are like ,,this`` or like »this«, while the French use « this » (note the space around the quotation marks). In French typography, you also put spaces around "!", "?", and ":". -- Michael Piotrowski, M.A. Electronic Technologies, Springer-Verlag Heidelberg
