A friend is compiling a list of the NAME of the '@' symbol in as many
languages as possible, WITH ITS MEANING. If someone knows of a URL with this
information it would be easier; if
not, he could use your help.
Here's what he has so far:

@, at (preposition indicating location or position), English;
@, arroba (a symbol for a unit of weight, specially for weighing cattle=15
kilograms), Brazilian Portuguese;
@, kukak (little worm), Hungarian;
