Note from asker:
gad, i've stumbled across the correct answer (or, should i say, a more precise answer, since as a general rule i don't go in for "completely rights" and "completely wrongs" in translation), but i'm going to leave it open. i mean, let's be honest, we use this service to get ourselves out of binds, but a lot of it is just for learning through the fun of it, right? paul
nope, there's another word...
