Let's talk about brackets!
Did you know that bracket is a generic term that refers to many kinds of punctuation marks? It's true! The marks commonly called brackets are properly named square brackets. There are also...
(Parentheses!)
{Braces!}
⟨Chevrons!⟩
「Corner brackets!」
⌊Half brackets!⌋
and ⟦double brackets!⟧
What is your favorite bracket? Mine is the good old reliable [square bracket]

half brackets are used in english to denote added text
they can also be used in the transcription of ancient documents to denote text that was missing in the original but confirmed by another source

Hidden brackets, my what a juicy proposition...
That's what I figured as well.
Same. I don't like seeing the bracket text duplicated as a tag. One or the other please.
Brak-Kitt? Don't you mean...
[[Here I was going to include a picture of the most notable person I could find with the last name "Brack" next to a picture of "ET". Unfortunately, the most notable person named Brack is apparently Viktor Brack...a Nazi war criminal.
Fucking Nazis, ruining my bad jokes.]]
(Also, what type of brackets was that aside supposed to be in? What about this one?)
