       Start position in default grapheme units.
       If $start is non-negative, the returned string will start at the
       $start'th position in $string, counting from zero. If $start is negative,
       the returned string will start at the $start'th grapheme unit from the 
       end of string.

       Length in grapheme units.
       If $length  is given and is positive, the string returned will contain
       at most $length grapheme units beginning from $start (depending on the 
       length of string). If $string is less than or equal to $start grapheme
       units long, FALSE  will be returned. If $length is given and is negative, then
       that many grapheme units will be omitted from the end of string (after the
       start position has been calculated when a start is negative). If $start
       denotes a position beyond this truncation, an empty string will be returned.
