Where are the word delimiters defined? Shouldn't these be defined somehow in
the tables? The apostrophe is a punctuation mark but as far as I know, at least
in English, it isn't used as a word delimiter.

the testing for the endword opcode looks for a letter preceding the string and
a space or punctuation following it. What is in the sreing is immaterial.
Similarly, the word opcode looks for a space or punctuation both before and
after the string. The string can contain anything. The opcode names are just
convenient mnemonics.
