Transcluded by "lang-xx" templates (like {{tl|lang-bo}} etc.)—''do not use directly''.

==Right-to-left==
For languages written right-to-left, like Arabic, Hebrew and [[Script (Unicode)|other]], it is advised to set {{para|rtl|<nowiki>{{rtl}}</nowiki>}} in the language template (lang-ar, lang-he).

This adds the character {{unichar|200f|RIGHT-TO-LEFT MARK|html=}} to the end of the string (the righthand side, in memory). It is an invisible formatting character, that ''terminates'' the R-to-L text. After this, (that is, directly after & outside of the template), all following text is initiated to be left-to-right (English) again.

== Category suppression ==
