It is same as Japanese and Chinese vertical writing,
horizontal (ltr) parts exist even in predominantly
vertical writing.
Example:
table, figure {
writing-mode: lr-tb;
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
vertical writing....
<table>
<td>
horizontal writing....
</td>
</table>
vertical writing....
<figure>
...
<figcaption>
horizontal writing....
</figcaption>
</figure>
...
</body>
</html
In this example, if the root writing-mode is tb-rl
then the "vertical writing...." is vertical writing
and the "horizontal writing...." is horizontal writing.
When the root writing-mode is switched to lr-tb,
both parts become horizontal writing.
