Oy Vey
''Oy vey'' ( yi, אױ װײ) is a Yiddish phrase expressing dismay or exasperation. Also spelled ''oy vay, oy veh'', or ''oi vey'', and often abbreviated to ''oy'', the expression may be translated as "oh, woe!" or "woe is me!" Its Hebrew equivalent is ''oy vavoy'' (, ). Derivation According to etymologist Douglas Harper, the phrase is derived from Yiddish and is of Germanic origin. It is cognate with the German expression ''o weh'', or ''auweh'', combining the German and Dutch exclamation ''au!'' meaning "ouch/oh" and the German word ''weh'', a cognate of the English word ''woe'' (as well as the Dutch ''wee'' meaning pain). The expression is also related to ''oh ve'', an older expression in Danish and Swedish, and ''oy wah'', an expression used with a similar meaning in the Montbéliard region in France. The Latin equivalent is ''heu, vae!''; a more standard expression would be ''o, me miserum,'' or ''heu, me miserum.'' According to Chabad.org, an alternative theory for the o ...

Homoglyph
In orthography and typography, a homoglyph is one of two or more graphemes, characters, or glyphs with shapes that appear identical or very similar. The designation is also applied to sequences of characters sharing these properties. Synoglyphs are glyphs that look different but mean the same thing. Synoglyphs are also known informally as ''display variants''. The term homograph is sometimes used synonymously with homoglyph, but in the usual linguistic sense, homographs are words that are spelled the same but have different meanings, a property of words, not characters. In 2008, the Unicode Consortium published its Technical Report #36 on a range of issues deriving from the visual similarity of characters both in single scripts, and similarities between characters in different scripts. An example of homoglyphic confusion in a historical regard results from the use of a 'y' to represent a 'þ' when setting older English texts in typefaces that do not contain the latter character. ...
