I need the word "confidence" written in arabic. I tried Babelfish and Google Translate, but my client says that it is incorrect.

Uh... Ask your client then?

how does your client know?
but he/she is probably right about online translators.

As racist as that is, e-pill, i can't say I didn't consider it. But, unfortunately, the client didn't want to rely on the word of a bodega cashier.

no they might write "get fucked" instead of confidence.

but thanks!! and cosmo thanks for clearing up the air.but era404 did you get the translation?
when i said politely i meant that you may find different sects of arabic.
some can be muslim and some can be christian and some can be jewish...so there would be different spellings and different accents on each word.
thats all i meant, its that kind of politeness that in the way arabs are protrayed in the world it can get annoying to be stereotype casted so much that any politeness is welcome.
but each to their own.

Pussies.
