MC-117193Text formatting not working correctly for right-to-left text in right-to-left language
The bug
Text formatting is not working correctly for right-to-left text in right-to-left languages. The position of the formatting character is reversed breaking the formatting. Additionally a "r" appears in front of the text which is likely used to reset the formatting but the formatting character for it appears to be placed incorrectly as well.
How to reproduce
- Change your language to a right-to-left one, for example Arabic (first right-to-left language in language list)
- Use the following command
/tellraw @a ["",{"text":"في يوم من الأيام ، كان ","color":"gray"},{"text":"ناصر قيمر ","color":"dark_green","bold":true},{"text":"يلعب ماب باركور","color":"gray","bold":false}]

Text formatting is not working correctly for right-to-left text in right-to-left languges. The position of the formatting character is reversed breaking the formatting. Additionally a "r" appears in front of the text which is likely used to reset the formatting but the formatting character for it appears to be placed incorrectly as well.
How to reproduce
- Change your language to a right-to-left one, for example Arabic (first right-to-left language in language list)
- Use the following command
/tellraw @a ["",{"text":"في يوم من الأيام ، كان ","color":"gray"},{"text":"ناصر قيمر ","color":"dark_green","bold":true},{"text":"يلعب ماب باركور","color":"gray","bold":false}]

MC-35765, please change the report to be only about the "r" in front of the message which appears for other right-to-left languages as wellCan you please add the exact command you use as well?
/tellraw @a ["",
{"text":"في يوم من الأيام ، كان ","color":"gray"},
{"text":"ناصر قيمر ","color":"dark_green","bold":true},
{"text":"يلعب ماب باركور","color":"gray","bold":false}]
here you go ( i used a tellraw generator )
Thank you for providing the command. I am going to edit the report a little bit, I hope you are fine with that.
