Phonetic Typing of Arabic
| In a nutshell! | Type Arabic the way you say it! |
| What is it? | Phonetic typing allows you to type Arabic easily without a physical Arabic keyboard, via a web browser or a mobile app. This tool is based on real-time transliteration which automatically converts Romanised Arabic or Franco Arabic to authentic Arabic script based on the sound of letters. You can simply type Arabic words in Latin characters and they’re converted immediately into their closest Arabic equivalent with varying degrees of accuracy. Some editing is required. |
