Hebrew is now one of the languages you can translate into. By default,
the page seems to be set to left-to-right, and so the english parts of
the definition get mangled. I can manually set the page to be
right-to-left on internet explorer, and then the definition is
displayed correctly. I practiced on 'cinfo'. 'min' מין is 'species'
(and 'sex'), 'sug' סוג is 'type' and 'genus', and 'zan' זן is
'strain'.
