Talk:bracket

In my experience meaning 4. is British English while 5. is American English. This is especially true when referring to the use of both as mathematical grouping symbols. I don't have a source other than my own experience, but if someone else can find a source, it would be helpful to verify this. 63.115.63.178 17:07, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

I think so too. I call ( ) brackets, and I was surprised that people online seem to call them "parentheses". That name sounds very strange to me. —CodeCat 17:29, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
