Zeev is an Israeli tech entrepreneur. Arrogance does seem very likely!

Too bad that if he wanted to stick something Hebrew there, as some sort
of Easter Egg, that he didn't at least use *correct* hebrew.

The correct Hebrew is nekudAtayim, with a an a, NOT an o.

The special double plural suffix is attach to the signular form, not to the
already plural form... Just like he said Paamayim, not Paamimayim

If you don't believe me, check out for example

PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION, expecting T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM

2012-02-14 Thread Dotan Cohen
I already figured out what this error is, but imagine my surprise when
I found that my error messages were localized! Especially when working
on a server somewhere in Germany via SSH and there being absolutely no
Hebrew or Israel configuration. What, did CentOS or PHP parse my login
name, and recognise it as an Israeli name? If the o had been omitted
from my last name would I have gotten the error message in Chinese?

Widely known PHP meme. Because, apparently, one does not have to know 
English well to write an interpreter engine.

I assure you he does know English and this was quite intentional...

$ svn ann  Zend/zend_language_scanner.l | grep PAA
 34779   zeev return T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM;

$ svn log -r 34779

r34779 | zeev | 2000-10-29 16:35:34 +0200 (Sun, 29 Oct 2000) | 2 lines

(this isn't the first occurrence in the code, but it's old enough (: )
