Of course, the verb forms will conjugate according to context (gender, number, tense, etc.). Since you provided no context, it will no be possible to specify the appropriate form among the many dozen forms for each verb. The printed dictionaries seem less consistent in this regard than ordinary language users.

For instance, instead of \"edit,\" they prefer \"editing,\" and so on. Following this custom, I would suggest the noun TANZEEL. On some music web site, where downloading a song essentially means storing it on your resident drive, the developers preferred using the verb HIFZ حفظ which means \"safekeeping\" or \"storage.\" I wonder if such terms fit in with your specific context. |
