Akatab right-to-left test

This paragraph demonstrates left-to-right behaviour.
ⵙⵏⵜⵜ ⵜⵙⴾⵍⵏ ⵓⵔ ⵜⴶⵂⵏⵜ ⵎⵉ
Senatet tsokalén wr teǧǧehnet émi.

The next two paragraphs demonstrate right-to-left behaviour.
These paragraphs have two special characters to change the direction of the characters and the text

  1. U+202E (RIGHT-TO-LEFT OVERRIDE) for Tifinagh
    The following text will be right-to-left. Additionally, the directionality of characters is changed to right-to-left.
  2. U+202C (POP DIRECTIONAL FORMATTING) to revert direction for Latin
    The following text is formatted like the text before the last U+202E character.

Right-to-left behaviour using typed (invisible) formatting characters.
‮ⵙⵏⵜⵜ ⵜⵙⴾⵍⵏ ⵓⵔ ⵜⴶⵂⵏⵜ ⵎⵉ‬‮
Senatet tsokalén wr teǧǧehnet émi.

Right-to-left behaviour using hard-coded html formatting characters.
(This can prevent accidental deletion of invisible characters.)
