English term or phrase:with all the good will in the world
This is of course an idiom the meaning of which I know but I'm looking for the equivalent idiom in Persian. This extract is from the book "In Other Words" by Baker under a discussion about gender distinction in language and use of s/he instead of he.
With all the good will in the world, an Arab writer or translator cannot side with this admittedly more enlightened approach to gender without sacrificing the readability of the target text.
