Post one word translation (in as many languages possible)

Hi,

I am new at these forums, and I come here to ask for help with a translation I have in hands... Let me say that I already have a list of translations (see below), but I would still need some more!

Ok, the word I need to have translated is *encounters*. To be more precise, this is a translation (mine) of the word "encontros", that is portuguese.

The word must have the following idea associated: *encounters of people*. You can also think, if also applicable, as *encouters of people, cultures, races, etc.* (in a more philosophical sense).

Important: These are all to be printed and therefore to be read, so I must be able to have them in their original script (character set).. If you can help me with this, it would be a great help. I am currently having problems with the chinese, japanese, and arabic translations below (don't know which fonts to use, or where to find them!!).
Also, please do not paste from dictionaries like babylon, post only if you are 100% sure... thank you

Here's a list with my current translations (some made by me, others kindly provided by users at experts-exchange):
* encontros (portuguese)
* encounters (english)
* encuentros (spanish)
* incontri (italian)
* die treffen (german)
* rencontres (french)
* tapaamiset (finnish)
* ontmoetingen (dutch)
* встреча людей (russian)
* möten (Swedish)
* συναντήσεις (greek)
* spotkania (Polish)
* întâlniri (romanian)
* pakikisalamuha (Filipino)
* Tajriba (arabic) (please read ps1)
* 遭遇 (japanese) (please read ps2)
* Milaap or Milan (Hindi) (depending on the context?? yet to be confirmed)
* 聚集 (chinese) (please read ps2)

Thank you very much in advance for your help!

cheers
