No, you “can” not, you “must” look it up.
I know what a sun is, I don’t know what HO means, I will have to look it up.
You’re looking at the problem as if there was no language other than english.
Growing up in a non anglophone country I had to deal with plenty of english-only interfaces that didn’t need to be, like ON/OFF.
I agree that bird icons are hard to decipher, but usually that’s not the case for common situations, like for the play, on, off buttons.

Is it really faster to learn what "|" means than "ON"? > I had to deal with And now you're fluent in English, while learning "|" was useful only for a switch. Again, nobody has to learn English in order to know what a handful of words like "ON" mean. You don't even need to learn the alphabet.
