   ok, which dictionary and what language. there are 7 major continents on the   
   planet earth encompassing 12 major religious cultures across 249 differing   
   nations and 300+ language roots (not including regional dialects, etc).   
   each of those language roots contains a dictionary with a minimum of   
   100,000 words....   
      
   I think its going to take a while.
