Dear Ali Mack,

I'd be grateful if you could present us with a reliable source like Webster or Oxford for the latter translation.

Thx

There are some references but not from Webster or Oxford, so I would rather eliminate the second one.

Thanks

Dude, The point is , there is NOTHING like that in English, neither commonly being used nor being verified by an accredited source. The reason is, my well respected professor, whose name is on LDOCE5 by the name of Dr.Ekbatani, said the same thing once, unless there's something we are not aware of. 

God bless
