thesaurosie commented on the word understandment
"Now, anyone with a fundamental understandment of grammar gets irritated by the misuse of apostrophes. Not so much in e-mails and the more informal methods of communication - Christ, let's not be Nazis about it - but incorrect signs and newspaper headlines tend to bring about incredulous tutting and shakings of the head.
Yet there is a new apostrophe menace in town. I've noticed it spreading like some kind of disease, over the last year or so.
The use of apostrophes for emphasis."
- Jason Arnopp, Apostrophe Catastrophe

Does this word really exist? It occurs quite a bit, but the general consensus is that understanding is always correct.
