The Left-to-Right (L) bidi class is assigned to characters that are written from left to right. This includes most alphabetic characters from Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, and other scripts that are typically written in this direction. The presence of L characters in a text influences the overall text directionality in bidirectional contexts.

This block includes all 46 basic Katakana characters, as well as several extended Katakana characters and marks. Katakana plays a crucial role in modern Japanese, especially in the context of technology, international communication, and popular culture..
