That's really quite impressive and the testing is rather well done as well, though shame on you for not doing the whole of Moby Dick - surely it can't have that many syllables to hand-count! ;)

I wonder if this could be turned into a Wordpress plugin to:
a) Check my posts to make sure that I am actually making sense (doesn't happen often on its own!)
b) Check comments to make sure they make some form of sense and have not dropped to the youtube 'lawl' level

Aye, apostrophes are a pain. I went with the remove-them-and-process-as-if-they-weren't-there approach, and so far it seems to be working, but that probably just means I need more apostrophe-based test cases!

Great code. Tried something similar recently. It gets worse if you parsing names. D'Alabert, O'Conolly and the like!
