Hi list,

We often see that `a word what you like'. But i get confused on it.
Why is it `word' but not 'word' or what else?

in which context do you ask above? bash? C? else? or something
unrelated to programming?

Hmm, not in bash. In some documents, or comments in the source code.
eg. I love `linux'. A reverse quotation (`) and a quotation (').

  there's not much point speculating on what the original poster meant
until he clarifies it.  the connection to the linux kernel here is
still entirely unclear.
