[Sca-cooks] Herb/Spice synonym list?

[Chris Stanifer]

I have noticed quite a number of different web sites
with lists of herbs/spices, and synonyms for these
items in numerous other languages.  Would a searchable
list of these items/synonyms be useful to us in our
research?  I'm thinking, in particular, a list into
which you could enter the name of an "unknown" spice,
possibly in a foreign language, and retrieve a
selection of synonyms for that spice/herb.  This might
help fledgling cooks working from foreign language
texts, and even experienced translators.

The reason I am suggesting a single list, rather than
simply checking one of the numerous lists on the
internet, is that I have noticed not all lists give
the same information.  Some synonyms are left out on
one list, while others are included elsewhere.

It would be helpful to me...anyone else?
