simple words such as
*mom

Is there a web site which has such translations?
Thank you for your help

HI

Mom = Walida , Um

Dad = Ab

SIster = Ukht

Grandmother = Jeddah ( Also the name of a city )

I have used Sakhr.com for translations , but now I think they arnt providing services for free . So try google search . May be some other site is offering their services for free .
