Well, to be pedantic, "parentheses" refers to any kind of brackets, while "brackets" usually means round brackets for Brits and square brackets for North Americans. So for clarity it's probably best to use "round brackets" ( ), "square brackets" [ ], "curly brackets" { } and "angle brackets" < >, or one of the many descriptive variations of these.

Best,

Mark
