What the hell are those? I looked at each letter (Unicode 1D5{12,36,22,37}), and apparently it spells out Oyez?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oyez

Oyez (/oʊˈjΙ›z/, /oʊˈjeΙͺ/, /oʊˈjΙ›s/, more rarely with the word stress at the beginning) is a traditional interjection said two or three times in succession to introduce the opening of a court of law, especially in Great Britain. The interjection is also traditionally used by town criers to attract the attention of the public to public proclamations.

Thank you for pointing it out, even though I'm French I read it as "Onez! Onez!", I thought it was meant to be 1337speak.

Oyez means β€œHere ye!” Town criers used to say it.

"Listen!" is a better translation.

Edit: Maybe you meant 'hear' not 'here'.
