I removed the "(obsolete) Europe" definition as the citation given was the song (Over There), particularly given that Over There (TV series) doesn't refer to Europe at all, albeit intentionally invoking the memory of the song about Europe. If there's an independent citation of some sort, feel free to add it back. Globish 18:45, 2 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

If that goes through, we will also need an expansion of over here - as in the wartime UK description of US troops (overpaid, oversexed and over here) SemperBlotto 18:50, 2 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Arabic translation[edit]

ثُمَّ(thumma) seems me more appropriate. ذلك is a demonstrative, not an adverb (following my own knowledge and all my sources), from them La Source vitale, dictionnaire français-arabe, Dar Soboh, Beyrouth at item "là" (there is no "là-bas)
