Teodor I have to apologize to you ...
you were right,
how I can explain this misunderstanding ?

who took courses management knows well the problem of distorted messages, when this one, it's repeated ... here my explanation

for the forum's translations, I prepare the best copy of the pic attached, sometimes I emphasized it, for more easier reading, then
- my translator thought about the problem proposed, then, gives me her opinion, but not all her thoughts, who conducted to her answer
- I received a verbal message only, but ... not the brain storming, sometimes (like for our subject) she gave me some indications about difficulties met
- on my side, I seek, or research, how to confirm or disprove his statements
- at that time, I put in writing what I "think" have understood

our native languages ​​are French and Arabic,
but on a daily basis we use the English / U.S. at home ... again, an other risk of distortion

all that to say that "Zarif" is an Arabic name as its meaning is "funny"
in fact, it's the decryption by itself it was a problem, not the name, as I thought wrongly

her latest comments today was to say, that perhaps it is " Zarifou" should be read (same signification),
but it changes nothing, for nothing

sorry again for the misunderstanding,
I am a little ashamed of having been too presumptuous through my reply to your message
this will teach me to want to play ... a smart ass

all the best
