title: What is &#39; and why does Google search replace it with apostrophe?
body: <p>In what language does <em>and - hash - three - nine - semicolon</em> (<code>&amp;#39;</code>) represent the apostrophe? I had some website data extracted in JSON format where some of the user comments had apostrophe which were replaced by <code>&amp;#39;</code>.</p>
  
  <p>So, what representation it is? I can not even google it as Google searches for apostrophe and not for <em>and - hash - three - nine - semicolon</em>.</p>
