No problem ;) For your linguistic curiosity, I often find myself using round bracket: I find it more precise, less vague. Not 100% sure about french, but in italian we of course have the equivalent of parentheses but it's generic, kids soon learn about round, square and curly variants. English is probably more precise, it usefully provides 3 different words: parentheses, brackets and braces, which often, outside a technical context, should be clear enough, without further qualifications.
Thanks!
Paolo
