ordering text field with non-alphanumerical character -

I want to order a text field which contains some words which begin with
a single quote, if however I perform the following query, the single
quote seems to be neglected:
select arabic, dutch from woordenlijst order by arabic;
After this query the words are ordered as if there _wasn't_ a single
quote in the beginning.
e.g. I get:
'arn eeuw
arrajul de man
'ashal gemakkelijker
How can I make a list of words with all text field values which start
with a single quote grouped together.
e.g.:
'arn
'ashal
arrajul
p.s.
you may wonder why I use words starting with a single quote, it is just a
standard approacht to transcribe the arabic character hamza that way |
