GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

Music / acapella
English term or phrase: The Phils
The word "The" is an article of definition. The name "Phils" is the abbreviated name of a student run acapella group called the Philharmonics that is singing for free at a Rice University study break. There is no inherent meaning in the name -- as in a name like Sam. A banner i am making, however, has the translation of the English "The Phils" into as many different languages as possible. Therefore, if you could translate it into more languages than just Arabic, that would be wonderful. So far, I have English, Korean, Taiwanese, German, Japanese, Spanish, Chinese (Mandarin), French, Greek and Hebrew.

Thank you.
