Mirror characters.

The result of your search contains mirror characters. These are characters that work in pairs, and whose shape is symmetrical with respect to the vertical axis. The most common ones are parentheses, brackets and braces, but many mathematical symbols are also mirroring : the greater than (>) and lower than (<) symbols, for example.

The shape of the characters is designed for Latin languages, which are written from left to right, but are ill-suited for writing in the opposite direction, as in the case of Arabic languages.

Mirror characters

The Unicode standard provides the possibility of replacing a character with its mirror when the writing direction is from right to left, in the case of Arabic languages, for example.

Here are some examples :

Latin languages
From left to right
Arabic languages
From right to left
