M.Elzubeir, could you please generate this file once-n-for-all (it will probably take you the least amount of time of all and would be much easier than answering more mails about it :-). I'm not sure that stems will be sufficient either since it will not encompass all the words a person looking to translate Arabic into English would find and/or inquire about (not really sure what to do there in order to add more content to the list beyond doing it by hand). As far as I'm concerned this "Arabic_wordlist" is rather low priority as we all need to focus on Arabbix and getting it out the door AND distributed sooner rather than later (Gitex is on our heals and we still need to find a means to find the burn-in/creation of some 5,000 CDs). If there are serious commitments from Mr. H.Boulmarouf and others that's a different story (by commitment I mean taking full control of this topic and baby sitting it until completion).
