As
if
Greek letters
weren'
t
enough,
physicists
and
mathematicians
also like to make up
tons
of
symbols
,
some of which look like the could actually be Greek letters
!

, and just happens to look like an inverted upper case
delta
to make things even more confusing!
Nabla
means
"harp" in Greek, which looks like the
symbol
.
