The equivalent French terms are dextrogyre and lévogyre. These are used infrequently in English, but sometimes they are, see e.g. Patrick Mailliet et al., page 12 and 15.

The first word component dextro- comes from the Latin word dexter, meaning "right" (as opposed to left). Laevo- or levo- comes from the Latin laevus, meaning "left side".
