The complex simplicity of my static websites
I think I confused the translation here. I'm Romanian where the {curly brackets} are called "acolade". I read the word "accolade" in English a few times and wrongly assumed it means the same thing as in Romanian.

Ah. Thanks. Yes, "accolade" in English is an award or privilege, or the tap you get with a sword when you become a knight.

I wish English had a separate word for those too!
