Glossary entry (derived from question below)
English term or phrase:
fulgurite
Arabic translation:
فلغريت، برقيت، عيدان البرق، عيدان الصواعق
English term
fulgurite
I would like to know if there is a specific term for this, I can't write the explanation because the number of charachters allowed is very limited; it is mentioned in a movie on which I am working.
Any help would be most appreciated.
Regards to all of you

Proposed translations
فلغريت، برقيت، عيدان البرق، عيدان الصواعق
The first one is a transliteration, just like غرانيت
The second is based on the Latin origin of the term, which means "lightening" or "thunderbolt."
The last two are just fanciful playthings.
تومض بفعل البرق أو تتكهرب
is there a sentence where it appears?
