Imagine if some Martians land in the Earth and try to write a dictionary about humans based on their own observation. They would see things differently from humans as they observe it from outside using their own logic. This dictionary is the result of such an observation. It tries to define the words in a different way from the ordinary dictionaries. It has a humorous and at the same time a criticising look at the concepts behind each word we use. This dictionary shows the differences in cultures, traditions and rules around the world in a subtle way.

Excerpt
Age
The length of time a human lives on The Earth. Humans do not like getting older, especially the female ones. Therefore, age is a sensitive issue especially when humans pass thirty. Aging is a sad process for most humans and they can not accept it, as it changes their physical figures and appearances, as well as their strength and abilities and it is also a precursor to death which is the scariest thing in human life. There is a lot of myth and sometimes techniques to prevent human aging but nothing certain is about how they can stop it. Because of this, humans are in damage control and try to prevent aging by doing alternations to their skin and outer parts of their body by medical operations called plastic surgery.
Bald
A hairless male human. One who has no hair on his head. It is very important for male humans to have hair on their heads as this makes them more desirable in female human’s eyes. Bald humans are always looking for some cure for their baldness and ways of growing or planting hairs. Even to justify their baldness, they have made up this proverb in human language that says: Grass does not grow on a busy road. The strange this with humans is that they like hair in some parts of their body very much but hate it in other parts. For example, they try hard to get rid of hair on their faces everyday but are worried about losing hair on their heads.
Brainwash
Forcing humans to accept new ideas by subjecting them to mental pressure. Taking the power of logical thinking from a human. Humans can be grouped into three groups: (a) Brain washers, who are leaders of different kinds including nationalist and capitalist; (b) Brain washed who are masses of humans that obey the ideas suggested by the leaders and systems. Brain washed humans can be easily slaved by other humans. (c) Brainless who have no brain to be washed. The humans in this group are found every where, even among the leaders of countries and nations on the Earth. It is still not known why humans choose the most brainless of ones as their leaders.
