Good to know

Arabic normally omits short vowel marks, so automatic transliteration cannot always tell which short vowel you meant. Hamza and ayn are approximated, and the output panel uses automatic direction so the script reads right to left.

Frequently asked questions

Why are short vowels missing?

Arabic script usually does not write short vowels, so the converter leaves them out the way standard Arabic does.

How are hamza and ayn handled?

They are approximated from your spelling, so check words where the glottal sounds matter, especially names.

Does the output read right to left?

Yes. The result panel uses automatic direction, so Arabic appears right to left and copies that way into RTL-aware apps.
