Hi Salwa,

You should be telling us the context of the initials or at least the topic of what you are translating. Now, I can only guess. But ... hmmmm ... DWI could mean Driving While Intoxicated. An acceptable Arabic translation might be: القيادة أثناء السكر and there are many more القيادة �ي حالة السكر . But you would have to look to see how the Moroccan legal system calls it. Personally, I would appreciate it if you could inform me how the Moroccans say it.

Concerning the meaning of HCS, my guess is as good as anybody's if we don't know the topic. But if you like, here is a link to many possible meanings:  http://acronyms. thefreedictionar y.com/Health+ Card+Server

Again, please tell me what you think it means.

Good Luck ...

John

Hope you are all doing fine.

 

I am translating a court judgement from English into Arabic and found these two abbreviations: 'DWI' & 'HCS'. Does somebody know what is the meaning of each.

 

Thanks
