[Arabeyes-docs] Translation question

[Youcef R. R. <yrr...@ho...>]

Salam,

Can anyone tell me what is the translation of the 'cyan' color ?
It would be unfortunate that with a language so rich in color-related words, 
we translate it to 'sayani' !!! (The same happened with 'magenta', I finally 
found in Ajeeb that it was 'orjowani'). Or, is 'sayani' an Arabic word ?

Does anyone know about a reference that could help in translating color 
names for ex. And if someone knows about a 'complete' online arabic 
dictionary (containing general words, not necessarily computer ones), please 
let me know. Ajeeb is good, but i couldn't find 'cyan' for example. I am 
trying to compile a list of references to add to the 'Translator Guide'.

In short, what are the online references you are using while translating + 
How do you translate 'cyan' ? :-)

Youcef.
