[knak]

I thought daleel meant "proof"?

[Cindy]

Well, I don't know Knak.
It might.

However, after I was told that (by a translator) I started surfing "daleel" and did find a some directories.

It actually can be used in both contexts. You'll hear people ask for the daleel of something in a religous context - the evidence, or proof. It's also commonly used for web directories and listings.

So both are correct depending upon the dialect - words take on different meanings in different areas.

[Per-Ling]

"daleel" at least in Farsi means reason, cause, or motive.
