Type Backwards with Combining Cyrillic Millions Sign U+0489
What happens when you paste the Combining Cyrillic Millions Sign, a Unicode Character labeled U+0489 and start typing – a strange phenomenon happens and you start typing all words backwords.

The Cyrillic block In Unicode extends from U+0400 to U+052F. The characters in the range U+0460 – U+0489 are historic letters not used now. However, Combining Cyrillic Millions Sign seems to contain hidden control characters next to it that force change of text directionality. Of course there are many Unicode control characters that help in bidirectional text control (override to flow from right-to-left as in Arabic)
