 		Does anyone recognize these symbols?


I'd rather not go into details here, but the short version is that my friend found this picture on her mother's boyfriend's PC. She's found the guy to be incredibly creepy in the past, and this doesn't exactly help ease those fears away. We didn't know what to make of the markings, but I said I would look into it. I know Unfiction is full of many people with different toolsets, so I figured I would ask here.

I know it's not really ARG related, but this is really the only place I could think of that could help. Any help would be appreciated Smile

Thanks!

 		Offhand, I'd say it looks like Hebrew. I don't know any Hebrew though, so I'll leave someone more qualified to confirm/deny and hopefully provide some kind of translation.

 		Yeah, it's Hebrew. Linking to the fancier font you see in the Torah etc. so you know to ignore the three lines coming out of the dalet

Also, since some appears to be in print while other parts seem to be in script, here's a comparison of print and script Hebrew.

I don't know enough Hebrew to be able to read that (especially w/o vowels) but it's probably just an artsy photo?

 		Thanks for the assistance! I figured it would be something like that, but my love of a good mystery got the best of me.

I'll pass the info along. Thanks again!
