Dear Mr. Mostafaei: Thanks for your comments.
1) An apology for "Dear Mostafa", I mixed up your given name and surname.
2) As to "doesn't necessarily mean that we are wrong", in my humble opinion, neutrality and disagreement are as different as chalk and cheese. Accordingly, my choosing "neutral" in NOT indicative of your being WRONG.
2) If you review the answers given so far to Netlangs'
questions (and s/he chose them as the fittest ones), surely,
you'll acknowledge that meaning has primacy (e.g. see: فضول را بردند جهنم گفت هیزمش تر است & که از تعجب داشت شاخ در می آورد). Accordingly, as you very well mentioned "It may [MAY] still convey both the SENSE and the WORDS" and it may NOT!
3) As to "without this information you can not [...]", owing to this very fact, I remained "neutral" (otherwise I could a adopt a more rigid stance. i.e. "agree" or "disagree") and that's why posted a discussion entry.
4) To me, calling a peer's answer into doubt - on reasonable grounds - means seeking genuine clarification and not confrontation.
Thanks for your time and consideration.
Kind regards,
Omid
