CSS unicode-bidi Property

The unicode-bidi property in HTML DOM is applied along-with the direction property to determine how the bidirectional text is handled in a document.

2. embed: This value is used to open an additional level of embedding. 

Syntax: 

unicode-bidi:embed;

3. bidi-override: This value creates an override for inline element and in case of block element, it creates an override for inline-level descendants not within another block element.

 👁 Image

4. initial: It sets the unicode-bidi property to its default value.
