The "back tick"? Isn't that just an incorrectly used accent grave?

But you are right, many people - especially in Germany who never use 
apostrophes anyway - just hit the accent key because they think it's an 
apostrophe.

This actually even happened with the first horrobly erraneous edition of 
the german klingon dictionary, that's why I pay attention so much to 
this. - Seeing {nuqDaq ´oH Qe´ QaQ´e´} just hurts my eyes.
