If "pitria" is what you're looking for (you originally wrote 'petria' - doesn't really mean anything in Hebrew) then a simple google search: מקור השם פטריה Gives this as the 5th entry: http://he.wiktionary.org/wiki/%D7%A4%D7%98%D7%A8%D7%99%D7%94 It's a biblical name. - Aviram _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
