Subject: multi dim array?

Hi (again),

I have a multi-dimensional array.. walking through an incoming string 
like this:

def translate(msg)
  some_alphabet = [ ["a","A"], ["b","B"], ["c","C"], ["d","D"] ]
  msg.split(//).inject("") { |result, char|
    result += some_alphabet[2][1]
  }
end

This replaces everything in msg with a "C", as it's the third one in the 
array.
But I'm looking for a way to replace not by integer/index but by char, 
like:

some_alphabet["c"][1]

I hope you know what I mean.. I looked at at() and find() and scan() but 
neither seems to fit this task?

Thanks!

Gijs
