Whenever you replace a character, you add (in addition to the replaced character) a separator.

@saurabh2k26 To be honest, it’s good idea to replace any character different than a-z or 0-9 with separator. In this case apostrophe is also replaced with -. It’s simple and clear.

If we would like to go another way, additional options would be needed to implement:

1. regex that matches all special characters like apostrophe
2. separator used to replace these special characters

Optionally we can just clear all the special characters. In this way 2nd new option won’t be necessary, because empty string will be used as separator.

@florianeckerstorfer Any thoughts?

@tenq Have you tried to use portuguese-brazil or french ruleset?

$slugify->slugify('Um mês de conteúdo', ['ruleset' => 'portuguese-brazil']);
// or
$slugify->slugify('Um mês de conteúdo', ['ruleset' => 'french']);
