<h2>Etymology</h2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p><i>Nekudotayim</i> (נקודתיים) means 'colon'; it comes from <i>nekuda</i> (IPA: <span title="Pronunciation in IPA" class="IPA">[nəkuda]</span>), 'point' or '<a href="/wiki/Dot" title="Dot">dot</a>', and the <a href="/wiki/Dual_grammatical_number" title="Dual grammatical number">dual</a> <a href="/wiki/Suffix" title="Suffix">suffix</a> <i>ayim</i> (יים-), hence 'two points'. Similarly, the word <i>paamayim</i> (פעמיים) is derived by attaching the dual suffix to <i>paam</i> (IPA: <span title="Pronunciation in IPA" class="IPA">[paʔam]</span>) ('one time' or 'once'), thus yielding 'twice'.</p>

<p>The name was introduced in the Zend Engine 0.5 used in PHP 3. Although it has been confusing to many developers, it is still being used in PHP 5, as in this sample error message:</p>
