I am extremely, strongly, and categorically against
any translation of 1 English word into 2 Arabic words
for several reasons:
a. Users hate it.
b. Because then its not a translation but an
explanation.
c. It makes sentences sound more mechanical and less
natural.
d. They are much harder to do tasrifs on.

Here I know I used 2 words for 1 :-) but that was a
stop gap measure. I truly did an exhaustive search for
an appropriate word and couldn't find one and was
planning to ask you ppl, but apparently forgot :)
I liked all your other suggestions though and will use
them from now on :)
Andulaziz,
