Notes:

• To know the Arabic name of each letter in from the following table, just leave the mouse pointer stand still for a moment on the letter figure (it will show in a tooltip).



• In Arabic there is no letters equivalent to the letter "P" nor the letter "G" (as in "Game") in English, but some languages that use the Arabic alphabets (such as Urdu and Farsi) put three dots under the letter (Ba') which is then pronounced as the "P" in "Pound" and the letter (Jeem) which is then pronounced as in "G" in "game".



• The letters with the pronunciation marked in red, are the closest pronunciation possible in the English language. To really know how they are pronounced you should hear them and try to get used to them. I promise to add sound samples for each letter ( I am working on it, so keep coming back!!).
  
  
• One more thing.. in Arabic there is no such thing as a capital or small letter, you just write the letter down (I just wanted you to know that !!).
