Bug Description

The star name Suhail appears both in Western and Arabic sky cultures, but for different stars. Arabic Suhail is Canopus. When translating Suhail into Arabic, it will have the same star name for Suhail and Canopus.

To avoid this, I suggest using the following spelling for the Arabic sky culture: "Suhayl" which is also appropriate.
This word is part of 4 star names in the Arabic sky culture.

I attach with this report the modified star names file.
