Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_DEC, expecting T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM (like here for instance) Seriously, what were PHP coders on, when they decided to implement this kind of error message?? For the record, it just means you're missing a :: somewhere.

    Developers of Zend Engine was jewish guys, so they wished to put some hebrew in it.

    More specifically, they were Israeli guys.
    It means "Twice" ("Paamayim") and "Nekudotayim" is the name of ":" in Hebrew.

    I think more likely they programmed in their native tongue, and this might have missed translation into English.

    While we're on this, they say a programming language is natural language independent. That's what I thought until I had to read and edit code written by Germans!
