I can think of a few English pictograms on the standard keyboard:
^ = Hat
* = Star
# = Hash
~ = Squiggle
{ = Curly
- AYBABTME 12y ago^ and ~ are accents in latin languages.
- vacri 12y agoI don't see what 'hash' is a picture of. There is 'cross-hatching' in illustration, but that's not the same word (and it's specifically cross-hatching, not just hatching, where the lines generally align). Otherwise 'hash' is either a meat dish or a recreational drug, neither of which look much like #.

- albemuth 12y agoSpanish (Costa Rica) has some amusing ones: ^ = techito (little roof) * = asterisco # = gato (litteraly means cat, but refers to the game of gato(tick tack toe)) ~ = rabo de chancho (pig's tail) : = dos puntos (two dots) ; = punto y coma (dot and comma) ' = comilla (little comma)
- tg3 12y agoI personally use ~=tilde, and *=asterisk.
