Letter Art

Now, here is a question for you. How can you see this Japanese word?

ぷ。

You may see this person is bowling. Probably, it is easier to recognize it like this.

ぷ。　...。　　......。　iiii

ぷ is just one of Hiragana letter in Japanese (it sounds "Pu"), but it looks like something different when you see it from another angle. Here is some arrangment of ぷ。


ぷ。　ぷ。　ぷ。

3 people are bowling at the same time.

ぷ。.....iiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

This is bowling with many pins.

These are very difficult to recognize this at first for native Japanese

because they see it only as a letter.

Here is a question for you.

These are not Japanese letters but alphabet and mark. How can you see it?
