Help With Random Words Code.

Hey guys, I've created a script that generate a random word of many words.

For example I click the mix button and I receive the word:

"book"

------------

I would like to create another button that, when I click it to show me the translation of the word (which is added in the script manually)

When I click mix again, to remove the old translation "book" and the english word "book", and to randomly appear another word, for ex. "green", when I click the second button to show again a box with translation and so on...

---------

 

I've created only the english word mixer, and I don't know how to create the translation. I'll be very happy and pleased if you can help me with making this, cuz will help me a lot.

 

<script language="Javascript">
<!--


// Use the following variable to specify the number of random words
var NumberOfWords = 28


var words = new BuildArray(NumberOfWords)


// Use the following variables to define your random words:
words[1] = "czarevitch"
words[2] = "brightwork"
words[3] = "verkrampte"
words[4] = "protectrix"
words[5] = "nudibranch"
words[6] = "grandchild"
words[7] = "newfangled"
words[8] = "flugelhorn"
words[9] = "mythologer"
words[10] = "pluperfect"
words[11] = "jellygraph"
words[12] = "quickthorn"
words[13] = "rottweiler"
words[14] = "technician"
words[15] = "cowpuncher"
words[16] = "middlebrow"
words[17] = "jackhammer"
words[18] = "triphthong"
words[19] = "wunderkind"
words[20] = "dazzlement"
words[21] = "jabberwock"
words[22] = "witchcraft"
words[23] = "pawnbroker"
words[24] = "thumbprint"
words[25] = "motorcycle"
words[26] = "cryptogram"
words[27] = "torchlight"
words[28] = "bankruptcy"


function BuildArray(size){
   this.length = size
   for (var i = 1; i <= size; i++){
       this[i] = null}
   return this
}


function PickRandomWord(frm) {
   // Generate a random number between 1 and NumberOfWords
   var rnd = Math.ceil(Math.random() * NumberOfWords)


   // Display the word inside the text box
   frm.WordBox.value = words[rnd]
}


//-->
</script>

 

<form name="WordForm" align="center">
<input type="TEXT" size="40" name="WordBox"><br><br>
<input type="BUTTON" onclick="PickRandomWord(document.WordForm)" value="Разбъркай!">
</form>
