Domain	Definition
Computing	@Begin The Scribe equivalent of \begin. [Jargon File] \begin The LaTeX command used with \end to delimit an environment within which the text is formatted in a certain way. E.g. \begintable...\endtable. Used humorously in writing to indicate a context or to remark on the surrounded text. For example: \beginflame Predicate logic is the only good programming language. Anyone who would use anything else is an idiot. Also, all computers should be tredecimal instead of binary. \endflame Scribe users at CMU and elsewhere used to use @Begin/@End in an identical way (LaTeX was built to resemble Scribe). On Usenet, this construct would more frequently be rendered as "" and "" (a la HTML), or "#ifdef FLAME" and "#endif FLAME" (a la C preprocessor).

Tips from 1870	Usage: Commence, Begin. Some persons always commence, but never begin. The tendency toward pomp and parade in speech prompts many persons to avoid the use of our strong, rugged Anglo-Saxon words, and to substitute their high-sounding Latin equivalents, until, in time, the preferable native forms come to be regarded as commonplace and objectionable. American usage is more faulty than English in this regard. Use begin and beginning more, and commence and, commencement less. Source: Slips of Speech.

Albanian	En'am	Ai është që lëshoi nga lartë shiun e me të nxori bimën e çdo sendi dhe prej bimës gjelbërim dhe prej tij (prej gjelbërimit) kokrra të dendura në kallinj. E nga hurmet, nga sythat tyre kalaveshë të afërt (për t’i vjelë). Edhe kopshtie me hardhi, ullinj e shegë të ngjajshme (në dukje) e të llojllojshme (në shije). Shikoni pra frutat e tyre kur i formojnë dhe kur piqen (të gjitha këto nga shiu). Edhe në këto ka fakte për njerëzit që besojnë.
Arabic	سورة الأنعام	وَهُوَ الَّذِيَ أَنزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَاء مَاء فَأَخْرَجْنَا بِهِ نَبَاتَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ فَأَخْرَجْنَا مِنْهُ خَضِرًا نُّخْرِجُ مِنْهُ حَبًّا مُّتَرَاكِبًا وَمِنَ النَّخْلِ مِن طَلْعِهَا قِنْوَانٌ دَانِيَةٌ وَجَنَّاتٍ مِّنْ أَعْنَابٍ وَالزَّيْتُونَ وَالرُّمَّانَ مُشْتَبِهًا وَغَيْرَ مُتَشَابِهٍ انظُرُواْ إِلِى ثَمَرِهِ إِذَا أَثْمَرَ وَيَنْعِهِ إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكُمْ لآيَاتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ يُؤْمِنُونَ

Azerbaijani	əl-Ən’am (Davar) surəsi	Göydən su (yağış) endirən Odur. Biz onunla hər bir bitkini yetişdirdik, yaşıl fidanlar göyərtdik, onlardan bir-birinə sarmaşmış (sünbül olmuş) dənələr çıxartdıq. Biz xurma ağacından, onun tumurcuğundan bir-birinə sarmaşmış salxımlar yetişdirdik. (Biz, həmçinin) üzüm bağları, bir-birinə bənzəyən və bənzəməyən zeytun və nar yetişdirdik. (Onlardan hər birinin) bar verdiyi vaxt meyvəsinə və onun yetişməsinə baxın. Şübhəsiz ki, bunda (Allahın Öz qüdrəti ilə yaratdığı bu şeylərdə) iman gətirən bir camaat üçün (Rəbbinizin varlığını sübut edən) dəlillər vardır.
Bosnian	EL-EN’AM * STOKA	I On je Taj koji spušta vodu s neba, paizvodimo njome rastinje svake stvari; i izvodimo iznje zelen iz koje izvodimo zrnje naslagano. A odpalme - iz pupoljka njenog - grozdove niske; i bašèeod grožða i maslina i nara, sliènog i razlièitog.Pogledajte plodove njegove, kad donese plod, i zrenjenjegovo. Uistinu, u tome su znaci za ljude kojivjeruju.
Brazilian Portuguese	AL AN’AM (O GADO)	É Ele Quem envia a água do céu. Com ela, fizemos germinar todas as classes de plantas, das quais produzimos verdes caules e, destes, grãos espigados, bem como as tamareiras, de cujos talos pendem cachos ao alcance da mão; as videiras, as oliveiras e as romãzeiras, semelhantes (em espécie) e diferentes (em variedade). Reparai em seu fruto, quando frutificam, e em sua madureza. Nisto há sinais para os fiéis.
Chinese	牲畜（艾奈阿姆）	他從雲中降下雨水，用雨水使一切植物發芽，長出翠綠的枝葉，結出累累的果實，從海棗樹的花被中結出－串串棗球；用雨水澆灌許多葡萄園，澆灌相似的和不相似的【木宰】橔和石榴，當果樹結果的時候，你們看看那些果實和成熟的情形吧。對於信道的民眾，此中確有許多蹟象。
Dutch	Het Vee (Al-An'aam)	En Hij is het, Die water uit de wolken nederzendt en daardoor elke soort van groei voortbrengt. En evenzo brengen Wij daarmee groen, waarvan Wij korenaren voortbrengen. En er komen uit de scheden van de dadelpalm laaghangende trossen. En Wij (brengen er) wijngaarden en de olijf en de granaatappel (mee voort) van gelijke en ongelijke soort. Kijkt naar het fruit ervan, wanneer het vrucht zet en naar het rijpen daarvan. Hierin zijn voorzeker tekenen voor een volk dat (wil) geloven.
English	Cattle, Livestock	It is He Who sendeth down rain from the skies: with it We produce vegetation of all kinds: from some We produce green (crops), out of which We produce grain, heaped up (at harvest); out of the date-palm and its sheaths (or spathes) (come) clusters of dates hanging low and near: and (then there are) gardens of grapes, and olives, and pomegranates, each similar (in kind) yet different (in variety): when they begin to bear fruit, feast your eyes with the fruit and the ripeness thereof. Behold! in these things there are signs for people who believe.
Finnish	AL-ANÁAM (Karjan suura)	Hän se antaa taivaasta vettä; siitä Me aikaansaamme kaiken kasvullisuuden alun ja siitä vihreyden, josta taasen synnytämme jyvät tähkään; ja taatelintertut kasvavat palmuissa riippuen tupistaan; samoin kasvatamme Me viinitarhat, öljypuut ja granaattiomenat, toistensa kaltaiset yhtä hyvin kuin erilaiset. Katsokaa niitten hedelmiä, kun ne muodostuvat ja kun ne kypsyvät! Tässä on kyllin tunnusmerkkejä ihmisille, jotka uskovat.
French	Les bestiaux (Al-Anam)	Et c'est Lui qui, du ciel, a fait descendre l'eau. Puis par elle, Nous fîmes germer toute plante, de quoi Nous fîmes sortir une verdure, d'où Nous produisîmes des grains, superposés les uns sur les autres; et du palmier, de sa spathe, des régimes de dattes qui se tendent. Et aussi les jardins de raisins, l'olive et la grenade, semblables ou différent les uns des autres. Regardez leurs fruits au moment de leur production et de leur mûrissement. Voilà bien là des signes pour ceux qui ont la foi.
German	Das Vieh (Al-Anám)	Und Er ist es, Der Wasser niedersendet aus der Wolke, damit bringen Wir alle Art Wachstum hervor; mit diesem bringen Wir dann Grünes hervor, daraus Wir gereihtes Korn sprießen lassen, und aus der Dattelpalme, aus ihren Blütendolden, (sprießen) niederhängende Datteltrauben, und Gärten mit Trauben, und die Olive und den Granatapfel - einander ähnlich und unähnlich. Betrachtet ihre Frucht, wenn sie Früchte tragen, und ihr Reifen. Wahrlich, hierin sind Zeichen für Leute, die glauben.
Indonesian	AL AN'AAM	Dan Dialah yang menurunkan air hujan darilangit, lalu kami tumbuhkan dengan air itu segalamacam tumbuh-tumbuhan, maka Kami keluarkan daritumbuh-tumbuhan itu tanaman yang menghijau, Kamikeluarkan dari tanaman yang menghijau itu butir yangbanyak; dan dari mayang kurma menguraitangkai-tangkai yang menjulai, dan kebun-kebunanggur, dan (Kami keluarkan pula) zaitun dan delimayang serupa dan yang tidak serupa. Perhatikanlahbuahnya di waktu pohonnya berbuah, dan (perhatikanpulalah) kematangannya. Sesungguhnya pada yangdemikian itu ada tanda-tanda (kekuasaan Allah) bagiorang-orang yang beriman.
Italian	Al-An'âm (Il Bestiame)	Egli è Colui che fa scendere l'acqua dal cielo, conla quale facciamo nascere germogli di ogni sorta, da essi facciamo nascerevegetazione e da essa grani in spighe e palme dalle cui spate pendono grappoli didatteri. E giardini piantati a vigna e olivi e melograni, che si assomigliano masono diversi gli uni dagli altri. Osserva i frutti quando si formano e maturano. Ecco segni per gente che crede!
Japanese	家畜 (アル・アンアーム)	かれこそは，雨を天から降らす方である。われはこれをもって凡てのもの（植物）の芽を萌え出させ，次に新緑（の群葉）を出させ，累々と穀物を実らせる。またナツメヤシの莢から，（重く）垂れ下がった房（を生え出させ），またブドウ，オリーブ，ザクロ等，同類異種の果樹（を育てる）。その呆実が結び，そして成熟するのを観察しなさい。その中には本当に信仰する人々への印がある。

Malay	Al-An'aam	Dan Dialah yang menurunkan hujan dari langit lalu Kami tumbuhkan dengan air hujan itu segala jenis tumbuh-tumbuhan, kemudian Kami keluarkan daripadanya tanaman yang menghijau, Kami keluarkan pula dari tanaman itu butir-butir (buah) yang bergugus-gugus dan dari pohon-pohon tamar (kurma), dari mayang-mayangnya (Kami keluarkan) tandan-tandan buah yang mudah dicapai dan dipetik dan (Kami jadikan) kebun-kebun dari anggur dan zaiton serta buah delima, yang bersamaan (bentuk, rupa dan rasanya) dan yang tidak bersamaan. Perhatikanlah kamu kepada buahnya apabila ia berbuah dan ketika masaknya. Sesungguhnya yang demikian itu mengandungi tanda-tanda (yang menunjukkan kekuasaan Kami) bagi orang-orang yang beriman.
Polish	TRZODY	On jest Tym, który spuscil z nieba wode, i dzieki niej wyrastaja wszelkie rosliny. Z nich wyprowadzilismy zielen, a potem ziarna skupione w klosach; a z palmy daktylowej kiscie daktyli nisko zwisajacych; i ogrody winnej latorosli, drzewa oliwne i drzewa granatu, podobne do siebie i niepodobne. Popatrzcie na ich owoce, gdy one owocuja i kiedy dojrzewaja! Zaprawde, w tym sa znaki dla ludzi, którzy wierza!

Russian	CKOT	Oн - тoт, кoтopый низвeл c нeбa вoдy, и Mы пpoизвeли блaгoдapя eй pocт вcякoй вeщи; Mы вывeли из нee зeлeнь, из кoтopoй вывeдeм зepнa, cидящиe в pяд; и из пaльмы, из ee зaвязeй, бывaют гpoздья, близкo cпycкaющиecя; вывoдим и caды из винoгpaдa, и мacлинy, и гpaнaты, пoxoжиe и нe пoxoжжиe.

Spanish	Los rebaños	Y Él es Quien ha hecho bajar agua del cielo. Mediante ella hemos sacado toda clase de plantas y follaje, del que sacamos granos arracimados. Y de las vainas de la palmera, racimos de dátiles al alcance. Y huertos plantados de vides, y los olivos y los granados, parecidos y diferentes. Cuando fructifican, ¡mirad el fruto que dan y cómo madura! Ciertamente, hay en ello signos para gente que cree.
Swahili	SURAT AL - AN-A'AM	Na Yeye ndiye anaye teremsha maji kutoka mbinguni;na kwayo tunatoa mimea ya kila kitu. Kutokana nabaadhi yao tukatoa mimea ya majani, tukatoa ndani yakepunje zilizo pandana; na kutokana na mitende yakatokakwenye makole yake mashada yaliyo inama; na bustani zamizabibu na mizaituni, na makomamanga, yaliyo fanana na yasiyo fanana. Angalieni matunda yake yanapo zaa nayakawiva. Hakika katika hayo pana Ishara kwa watuwanao amini.
Thai	ซูเราะฮฺ อัล-อันอาม (Al-AnAm)	และพระองค์นั้นคือผู้ที่ทรงให้น้ำลงมาจากฟากฟ้าแล้วทรงให้ออกมาด้วยน้ำนั้น ซึ่งพันธุ์พืชของทุกสิ่งและเราได้ให้ออกจากพันธุ์พืชนั้นซึ่งสิ่งที่มีสีเขียว จากสิ่งที่มีสีเขียวนั้นเราได้ให้ออกมาซึ่งเมล็ดที่ซ้อนตัวกันอยู่ และจากต้นอินทผาลัมนั้น จั่นของมันเป็นท
Turkish	En'am Sûresi	O, gökten su indirendir. İşte biz her çeşitbitkiyi onunla bitirdik. O bitkiden de kendisinde üstüste binmiş taneler bitireceğimiz biryeşillik; hurmanın tomurcuğundan sarkan salkımlar;üzüm bağları; bir kısmı birbirine benzeyen, bir kısmı da benzemeyen zeytin ve nar bahçelerimeydana getirdik. Meyve verirken ve olgunlaştığızaman her birinin meyvesine bakın! Kuşkusuz bütün bunlarda inanan bir toplum için ibretler vardır.
