Discussion

Ahmad Batiran (asker) May 7, 2008:
Dear yelhajj, scientific talk is dry not offensive. You are repeating your words without regarding my past reply.
yelhajj May 7, 2008:
Dear Ahmad, I hope no offense is taken, my point is that, if the term blastomere has the arabic meaning you provided, then there must be another meaning for the other english term (8-cell stage)
Ahmad Batiran (asker) May 7, 2008:
Dear yelhajj, how come you used a translation for a term (مضغة) that was originally the translation of another (جنين)? This is not always a reason to disagree...please check the definition of 'Blastomeres' as you quoted the passive verb 'تــُــعـرَف', what is it? Check it up please! I am suggesting a term out of two here. This is not insisting it is right as much as rejecting a not well justified disagreement. Thanks!
yelhajj May 7, 2008:
Dear asker, how can you use a translation for a term that was orignally the translation of another? (وتعرف هذه باسم القسيمات الأرومية ‏(Blastomeres)). Allow me to disagree with your choice.
Ahmad Batiran (asker) May 7, 2008:
Thanks for all! التعبير الأدق هو الفلجة الـثــُـمانـيّـة (و من مرادفاتها: بلاستومير Blastomere - خلية جنينية أولية) [أنظر: http://basm.kacst.edu.sa/ViewTerm.aspx?termid=307277]. و آثرت استخدام التعبير أعلاه حسب كلام الدكتور زغلول النجار [أنظر: http://www.elnaggarzr.com/index.php?l=ar&id=402&p=2&cat=6] رغم أن الأول ربما كان أوجه. أما (الجنين ثــُماني الخلايا) فهو صحفي و ليس علمي. كما أنّ استخدام مُضغة غير دقيق رغم استخدام قاموس EMRO لها، و هو عام جداً. و الأدق أنها مرحلة النطفة الأمشاج. أرجو التصويب و الله الموفق.
Ahmad Batiran (asker) May 6, 2008:
zax, thanks!

Try GRAY'S anatomy book.
Yasser El Helw May 5, 2008:
I will answer you in an added note below (within my answer) because they are very particular about the use of this space.
Ahmad Batiran (asker) May 5, 2008:
Thanks again, Yasser! I think you, and others, are right. Is there any other reference?
I do not open/use this encyc. because they publish some claimed images to be of the Prophet - صلى الله عليه و سلم -.

Eight-cell stage
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from 8-cell stage)
Jump to: navigation, search
The eight-cell stage is a period in embryonic development when the conceptus has undergone three cleavages from a single cell, resulting in eight cells. In some mammals, it is at this stage of development that the individual cells begin to adhere tightly, a process called compaction. [1] A single cell can be removed from a pre-compaction 8 cell embryo and used for genetic screening. [2]

Ahmad Batiran (asker) May 5, 2008:
Yasser, thanks! Any reference, please?
Yasser El Helw May 5, 2008:
I am afraid you are mistaken, Ahmad. Your context speaks of a stage when the embryo is made up of 8 cells only. Good luck!
Ahmad Batiran (asker) May 5, 2008:
8 week cell? I think it is related to 8-week-old cell. Anyway, I have no solid ground to take this for granted. I will be thankful if someone has a reference.

I understand (and support) your indignation about the famous cartoons. The thing is that this encyclopedia is an open medium where anyone can enter the data they want. It's like the television set, you cannot reject it altogether because there are some channels that you don't like. At least that is the way I see it. The solution is for us to improve ourselves from within, and that'll make people respect us more.
Good luck with your translation.
Note from asker:
I wish you use the reference here. I can answer you on a seprate note about that; I even do not acknowledge how this encyc. work; for me it doesn't follow the right approach of knowledge. However, I seek another reference please! Thanks!
Thank you!
