LILT Translate supports right-to-left (RTL) and left-to-right (LTR) directional marks. These controls are used to determine the way adjacent characters are grouped with the respect to text direction. As an example, let’s look at the phrase: “The language C++ is a programming language used…” When translating from English to Arabic without an LTR mark, the browser will render the phrase into this: لغة ++C هي لغة برمجة تستخدم… With an LTR entered inserted after “C++”, it will render as the writer intends: لغة C++ هي لغة برمجة تستخدم… This video demo in a previous version of LILT Translate further demonstrates how directional marks work. Directional marks can be added into the target text field from theDocumentation Index
