God bless you. You're really a human machine :)

Well, I'm still working on file U, but couldn't work properly for almost
2 days now because of my brother's sudden visit from outside Kuwait and
my daughter was also so sick that I had to spend much of the time with
her (Alhamdo Lillah)
Hopefully, I'll continue working today with the file to finish ASAP.

Well, first of all I'd say this is just a normal conversation and debate.
Each one has his own ideas and point of view.
Anyway, here is my POV
+ Invalid words to be checked again with onelook.com using the 'Search all
dictionaries' option (if not used before).
+ Fuzzy words to be checked with Al-Mawrid (or any similar favorite dictionary),
to be sure 100% of the translation.
+ Whatever words that can't be found in both, can be checked with Google to make
sure it doesn't exist in any other unknown dictionary.
This is what I have in mind so far. Also, I'll be contacting some forums for help.
I've found some links in this page http://www.onelook.com/?w=bluebird&other=1 that
would be of great help to us.

Ossama Khayat
