I agree totally (but then again I thought that (the english) wiktionary
should only define english words in English), but there's not much that
can be done about it, becuase words in differnet langauges aren't
reflective. That is just because A in language 1 means B in language 2, it
doesn't mean B in language 2 means A in language 1. So it's not possible
to have a single list that's shared by many languages.
