“ and ’ are the same button, you press shift to get the quotation mark instead of the apostrophe. 

” and ’ are on the same key on the English keyboard, you need to use the shift key to choose one over the other. An easy mistake to make and an easy one to miss. 

“Also, are “ and ’ next to each other on an English keyboard or something?” They’re the same key, with “ being shifted (upper-cased). 

” and ’ are the same button on the english keyboard. You have to hold shift for it to write  "

Honestly, this makes a lot of sense, though I think I prefer the Norwegian layout (” on the 2 key, * on the ‘ key) specifically because of the risk of unnoticed mistakes like this.
