left bracket only

If you have a table using tabular. You have to use the brackets \left and \right as a pair. What if I want to input a left bracket only what are my choices?

Plus also how do you insert a space when there is no current \begin s except for \begin{document} where \\ does not work?

Re: Space between two words of text

\begin{gather*}
This Word\\
\end{gather*}

prints out in the pdf as

ThisWord

How do you get a space between "This" and "Word"?
