Not to put a damper on this very interesting idea, but if
I were to create a site like almisbar I would probably
have something set up so it wouldn't allow too many
requests from the same source...

would it be worth taking an english dictionary and
throwing it up against almisbar and parsing the data
from that? ie using a robot to collect that dictionary
as quickly as possible? someone would have to read over
it later, but I was looking at it yesterday and I think
PHP could go to the
URL, submit a word from a US dictionary, or vice versa,
and then get the response to store in mysql.

Salam
as an online reference I am using Almisbar which is great
in conjunction with lisan al3arab. That's all!!! and the
dictionary is great, I also use my Sister which studies
english at university ;) I for myself don't think a
dictionary alone would make it BUT Almisbar is the best
dictionary I found out there. http://www.almisbar.com
cheers

Salam,
Can anyone tell me what is the translation of the
'cyan' color ? It would be unfortunate that with a
language so rich in color-related words, we translate
it to 'sayani' !!! (The same happened with 'magenta',
I finally found in Ajeeb that it was 'orjowani'). Or, is
'sayani' an Arabic word ?
Does anyone know about a reference that could help in
translating color names for ex. And if someone knows
about a 'complete' online arabic dictionary
(containing general words, not necessarily computer
ones),
please
let me know. Ajeeb is good, but i couldn't find 'cyan'
for example. I am trying to compile a list of
references to add to the 'Translator Guide'.
In short, what are the online references you are using
while translating +
How do you translate 'cyan' ? :-)
Youcef.
