    C-x C-f / t m p / x . t e x <return> h e l l o SPC " m y " SPC d e a
    r e s t ~ " d a r l i n g . " <return> 

The resulting text is

    hello ``my'' dearest~''darling.''

But in TeX, the ~ character is a "tie", and for purposes of electric
quote marks, it should be treated as a space, not as an end-of-word
character, producing the correct text

    hello ``my'' dearest~``darling.''

(Note difference in quotes preceding 'darling'.)
