Are the icons for Microsoft Word Excel Power Point and Entourage letters from the Hebrew alphabet?

No, they are not from the Hebrew Alphabet. Some of the shapes of the icons for Microsoft Office 2004 Mac do look a lot like Hebrew letters but they are not. The lowercase "e" from Entourage looks a lot like the Hebrew "Peh" (ּפּ), the "P" from Powerpoint does not have its legs connected so it looks like the Hebrew Letter "Qof" (ק), the "W" from Word looks like a Hebrew "Shin" (ש), and the "X" from Excel looks like an "Aleph" (א). However, this is just the case because the Hebrew letters and the more loose form of the English letters that Microsoft chose to use are similar. The icons for Access, Frontpage, OneNote, and Visio do not resemble any Hebrew characters.
