Is "Semitic" a language, or an adjective to describe people? I thought the language was "Hebrew". -- Bignose
Semitic is a language family, including Hebrew but also Arabic and several other languages, of particular note here being Phoenician, which is what the first alphabet was developed for.
The characters given for Epsilon don't display on my browser, but that's perhaps not surprising as I don't have a Greek font installed. However, surely six characters aren't required to display one Epsilon? -- Bignose
- You don't need to have a Greek font, these Greek letters are in the standard html set. If you don't see this : Εψιλον, does this : Εψιλον display correctly ? And the symbol for Epsilon is Ε or ε (upper/lower case), but the six characters are the Greek name of Epsilon, just like "Epsilon"... SeeSchloss 09:22, 5 Aug 2003 (UTC)
I've deleted the E programming language. Never heard of it, if it is worth an article then it could be added again. -- Egil 08:55 Mar 14, 2003 (UTC)
I've heard there was an e-less book made. Should this be mentioned, if it can be verified?
- http://www.erights.org/ < home of the E programming language. Well I don't think it is widely known and it is certainly not worth adding it again. SeeSchloss 09:22, 5 Aug 2003 (UTC)
- I believe the book you are referring to is Gadsby written by Ernest Vincent Wright. As to whether it should be included, well... that was the reason I looked up e in the first place. ;) ~ Bob 07:05, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
