		Way off topic, but I just need a quick hand...can you tell me what Greek letters the first and 5th characters are?  
 
  
 
 I can't tell if the first is upsilon with an accent, or nu?  Is there a trick telling these apart, or just look for the rounded bottom?
 
 And is the fifth, "rho" with a really big flarey tail or something else?
 
 And just for my info, what is this word?

		| upsilon, sigma, tau, epsilon, rho, alpha. meaning "womb." (hystera, transliterated).  the accent over the upsilon indicates rough breathing or an "h" sound; there would never be an accent over the nu (n); fairly standard typeface for the rho, though I would never write it that way. |

		| It means  "Yogurt 2% fat, buy one get one free" loosely translated of course. |
