Arabic term or phrase: اطلاعات
Greetings,

Please see:
http://fa.wikipedia.org/wiki/اطلاعات_(روزنامه)

In spite of the fact that this is the Persian name of an Iranian newspaper, it is not the Farsi meaning which I wish to enquire about but rather the Arabic meaning. Please let me know which three-letter root the word comes from and what the meaning of the basic root verb is.

Please also write the Arabic original of اطلاعات if different.

Many thanks,

Simon
