Bug ID: 57832
Summary: Search engine fail to find same word with an
apostrophe before (French usage)
Product: Wikimedia
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized

When I search a word, the search engine fail to find the same word when it has
an apostrophe before, so a search for "apostrophe" doesn't find "L'apostrophe"
occurrence.
In French the apostrophe is not part of the word, its a contraction for "La
apostrophe".
For example :
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ASearch&profile=default&search=Arc-en-Ciel&fulltext=Search
"Arc-en-Ciel" doesn't match any "L'Arc-en-Ciel" (with L') directly.
Compare with a search "L'Arc-en-Ciel"
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=L%27Arc-en-Ciel&title=Special%3ASearch&fulltext=1
In French, like in English, apostrophe should be not indexed as part of the
word.
Note : its the same bug than
