The Hebrew word Aleph (אלף) refers to the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet (א). Aleph is known as a silent letter, but it is also a glottal stop.

The word aleph comes from the Hebrew word elef, which means thousand (or thousand-heads-of-oxen).

What does WWW MEAN in HEBREW?

it is the same in Hebrew as in English, just like all the email addresses are in English so are web addresses _____ To clarify, there is no letter in the Hebrew alphabet that actually corresponds to the English letter 'W'. As a result, www has no meaning in Hebrew. When translating foreign words that have the 'w' sound into Hebrew, the most common letter combination used is: yud yud. The sound the letter yud makes is the same as the English 'Y'. A cute anecdote, many years ago there was a Wendy's fast food restaurant in Tel Aviv. The Wendy's sign had the English letter W then the rest of the name written in Hebrew.
