Note from asker:
| Thanks. 'if known thou' doesn't convey much in English. I have wondered about something along the lines of 'if the truth be told' or is that way off the mark? |

Ahmad Batiran
: Mr. Mustafa Fadhel, 'disagreement' is so negative and usually there is something wrong when used. A different answer other than yours isn't necessarily wrong . Such abuse of disagreement affects your colleagues' profiles for no valid practical reasons.
