" MY REPLY: In many instances I elaborated on our Assyrian nation, that you refuse to accept, but to connected with what the English dictionaries came up with. Then why as I said before bother myself to define it, when you don't accept? Furthermore, in the same SOURCE ( English Dictionary ) of ' New World Dictionary ' on page 946: The third definition which says ,' THE PEOPLE or TRIBE ';esp a tribe of N. America ( and why not of N. Mesopotamia ?). --------------------- |
