Dear Uytteb and Clive,
Yes, this is an annoying problem for those of us who work from French to English (though I am sure there must be other languages affected by it). I have raised this issue with developers and will bring it up again.
Thanks for the suggested workaround (adding the space), but like you said, not an ideal solution unless the file is Word and you create a macro to automate this for you. You' probably also want to F/R your TM once in a while to replace the strange l'(space) with l'.
The other workaround of adding two additional entries (l'étanchéité and d'étanchéité) is tedious.
Thanks for your feedback!
John
