So why the hassle?<BR/><BR/>Besides, I think this issue is pretty old. Ever since when I was a kid, I knew Salmiyah/Salmiya/Salmeya/Salmeyah was put in English in various ways. And so was Rumaithiya. The list actually could go on for every man6a8a. Even if they were put in English from elfu97a way of saying the areas, they'd come up with a couple of spellings. After all I don't expect it otherwise. The Arabic and English Languages have no relation really. There's no set exchange rate, if you wish.<BR/><BR/>However, if we were to be picky, fine. The country should put a standard spelling for each area and stick to it.<BR/><BR/>I don't think it's much of a problem. I never heard someone gettign lost because of the minor differences, the "e" and "a" in Damascus or Demascus. Meh, like I said as long as it's read-able the country transportation <I>will function just fine.</I><BR/><BR/>Atleast we don't call our speed bumps, "road humps". Or like in France and Germany have their signs only in their language. They just don't seem to get over the fact that their language is not the #1 spoken lang' in the world anymore.Safihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09556900070580716101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5186499.post-1145453415042654302006-04-19T16:30:00.000+03:002006-04-19T16:30:00.000+03:00LoL, point taken.
