What are right linear and left linear languages?
I've run across the terms right linear and left linear languages. Does right linear mean they read from right to left and left liner the opposite? Also, I saw this: A grammar is said to be right linear if all of the rules are of the form A-->xB, A-->x. Left linear are of the form A-->Bx and A-->x. What does that mean? Thanks a million in advance.

Those are formal languages, not human ones. And no, it has nothing to do with the way they are written (or read).
