that's what I assumed. I know that forum software is all different, and wasn't sure if there were features such as those sort of statistics that were disabled. guess we may never know...

thanks, Fald. I have a pretty good English version, that's is, it's purty, but I just need to check some specific words, mostly. want to amke sure I'm actually using nouns and such, rather than all them indefinite articles...

Sorry, no Anna. All my Hebrew linguistics books are of the paper and print variety. I'm sure folks around here know this already, but algorithm has nothing to do with rhythm, it derives from an Arab author's name ('al khwarizmi, born in Baghdad) who wrote a book on the algebra that was translated into Latin in Europe and became a staple. I have a xerox of one of the editions which I'll see if I can yank any interesting material out of.

Personally, being not very mathematical, I've always been found of the aptness of the name algebra, seeing as how attempting it always leaves me feeling broken in pieces.
