<< review queue entry 62217 - submitted by 'sl89' >> Square brackets generally refers to []. Pleco “has boldface square brackets (【】 )” which seems plain wrong to me. Square brackets in bold don't change their shape to look like lenticular brackets. From Wikipedia: Some East Asian languages use lenticular brackets 【 】, a combination of square brackets and round brackets called 方頭括號 (fāngtóu kuòhào) in Chinese and すみ付き (sumitsuki) in Japanese. They are used for inference in Chinese[clarification needed] and used in titles and headings in Japanese. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bracket#Lenticular_brackets The name for the Unicode characters are “LEFT BLACK LENTICULAR BRACKET” and “RIGHT BLACK LENTICULAR BRACKET”. https://unicode.org/cldr/utility/character.jsp?a=%E3%80%90&B1=Show https://unicode.org/cldr/utility/character.jsp?a=%E3%80%91&B1=Show ---------------------------------------- Editor: lenticular ~ "shaped like a biconvex lens ... [from] Latin lenticulāris, lentil-shaped" |
