Right-to-left
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A script is described as 
right to left (or RTL) if writing starts from the right of the page, and continues to the left. Right to left scripts are:
- Arabic script - used for Arabic, Persian, Urdu and many other languages.
- Hebrew alphabet - used for Hebrew, Yiddish and some other Jewish languages.
- Syriac alphabet - used for varieties of the Syriac language.
- Thaana - used for Dhivehi.
- N'Ko script - used for several languages of Africa.
Right to Left text is supported in Firefox, Open Office, and other common consumer software[1]. Often this support must be explicitly enabled. For mixing right-to-left text with left-to-right text, see Bi-directional text.
