Re: Math and Scientific Terminology in Maalam

Hi Mohammed and thankx for your vote ;)

In fact there's no translation problem ! The arabic notations ALREADY EXIST 
for any of the math terms.

The problem, as i see it, is that there is a MASHRIQI terminology and a 
MAGHRIBI one and I don't know which one to use. The logic would be to use 
both but I don't like this solution as it introduces a difference.

I'm waiting for people from MOROCCO or TUNISIA (I had Walid's opinion from 
Lybia. Thanks Walid !) to tell me if I am right or totally wrong: If the 
problem I'm talking about is really MASHRIQ-MAGHRIB one or only 
ALGERIA-REST_OF_THE_ARABIC_WORLD one.

In the first case, we'll have to decide which notations to use: maybe both 
at the end ;) In the second case, it will be obvious to use the standard 
notations ...

Salam,

Youcef.
