Arabic term
مندسّ
Arabic to English
Law/Patents
Media / Multimedia
This term has been used extensively by the Syrian Media to describe the so-called unknown parties shootings demonstrators in Syria (since March 2011).
We need a creative term to be easily understood by the English language speker. We tried hard to find a matching term for this word that describes a person who sneaks among a group that he does not belong to.

: this won't work I'm afraid as "sneaker" is now most commonly used as a word for a kind of gym shoe and so it sounds very odd

شكراً يا أخ محمد على تعليقك . فعلا تم استخدام صفة المفعول به حيث يمكن أن تكون تلك العناصر قد تم دسها بواسطة جهات خارجية فتصبح عناصر مندسة أيضا. ولك الشكر مرة أخرى
