Hi!

At first glance, I see much Latin, German and even
some French there, but precious little English!
Hopefully one of these links will turn out to have
what I'm after. Although I read French pretty
well, and German too, somewhat more slowly, English
would be still more accessible to me.

Regards,
Yahya
