Hello, I`m sorry I must be tired but I`m not getting into this IDN.

Not only I`m trying to figure out which are the best to translate but how to translate them....and when it come to Chinese the all mess is done.

The last thing is this:

on Ebay I saw someone selling: money.com

They wrote this IDN:
xn--mney-55d.com

But the thing is: what kind of IDN is??????????????? Arabian? Chinese ? Japanese? or what?
I`m going crazy.

Thanks for any help.
Cheers

I`m sorry to bother you with my silly questions but I thought I was getting there till today when I saw this one.
Thanks again

Well without researching in depth, the bit to the right of the xn-- spells money without the o. So we know that the rest represents the O, but it is not a standard Latin character. At a guess it will be Macedonian or something similar.

I know of no other langauge other than English that has Money as a word that is the primary term for the means of exchange. It can therefore be assumed that they are trying to "fake" the word money. It is no longer possible to register such names as far as I am aware, and in all probability they will at some point in time all get deleted, because their only value is for phishing attacks, but even this is being largely negated by improvements to the browsers.

Solution, to this problem, as usual is to flog it to some unsuspecting Newbie.

Thank you Dave, you are really a light in this forum for IDN, I think I will suggest to the admin to reward you with a free exclusive membership, you just deserve it.

Best regards
