Question: Why certain delimeters act in a strange way

Can someone please explain to me why this occurs:

 


 

with(StringTools):

Join(["H:\\USB 1 BACKUP\\ESD-USB\\", "Chemical Engineering"])

"H:\USB 1 BACKUP\ESD-USB\ Chemical Engineering"

(1)

convert("H:\\USB 1 BACKUP\\ESD-USB\\ Chemical Engineering", 'symbol')

`H:\USB 1 BACKUP\ESD-USB\ Chemical Engineering`

(2)

convert('`H:\USB 1 BACKUP\ESD-USB\ Chemical Engineering`', 'string')

"H:USB 1 BACKUPESD-USBChemical Engineering"

(3)
