Well you need to be innovative and relentless with this given the passion.
Google is a great source as are various online dictionaries, email their
maintainers to get access to their dictionaries given they are all open
source (be _very_ careful in using ONLY open source licensed data).

These dictionaries exist, no doubt about it, since you can readily find
online free services touting these translations.  Now its just a matter
of doing the leg work, searching and asking various external people to
get access.

Hope that helped.
