 Hello,

 On the server my website is on the Hebrew comments are aligned to the left
 instead to the right (RTL). It does not related to a theme or a plugin,
 and it misaligned in the admin panel as well.

 I investigated the problem and found out that the comments are recognized
 as written in English instead of Hebrew because of this line (/wp-
 content/languages/he_IL.php):
 $c_eng = $this->count_it($text, '/\w+/u');

 Hebrew characters (in specific server configurations) are also recongized
 as '\w', what cause the $c_eng to high and $c_heb to be low.
 Changing the line to defining the characters explicitly fixed the problem:
 $c_eng = $this->count_it($text, '/[A-Za-z]+/u');

 It was tested for a few months in my blog http://www.merkazhakfar.co.cc/ .

 Thanks,
 Ori.
