The Arabic letter ب (Baa) with three dots below it, ب (Baa) with three dots (ݐ), is an extended Arabic script letter representing the 'p' sound (like in "pen"), used in languages like Persian, Kurdish, and Urdu, where standard Arabic lacks a 'p'. It's a modification of the standard 'ب' (Baa), which is a 'b' sound, and the dots distinguish the sound, especially for non-Arabic speakers or languages needing the 'p' phoneme.
The Arabic letter ى is called Alif Maqṣūrah (أَلِف مَقْصُورَة), meaning "restricted alif," or sometimes Alif Layyinah (أَلِف لَيِّنَة), meaning "flexible alif". It looks like the letter ي (Yaa) but without the dots and functions as a long 'a' (ā) vowel sound, appearing only at the end of words, like in "على" (ʿAlā - on).
Ve (ڤ) is a letter of the Arabic-based Comoro, Kurdish, Luri, Swahili, and Wakhi alphabets.
ݐ (Unicode name: Arabic Letter Beh With Three Dots Horizontally Below) is an additional letter of the Arabic script, used in some African languages such as Fulfulde. It is equivalent to the Latin letter Ƴ ƴ.
The letter "ز" (zay) is a prominent character in the Arabic alphabet, occupying the eleventh position in the script. Pronounced as a voiced alveolar fricative, similar to the "z" in the English word "zebra," "zay" adds a sharp and distinct sound to the Arabic language.
Around 300 BC, the Roman Censor Appius Claudius Caecus removed Z from the alphabet. His justification was that Z had become archaic: the pronunciation of /z/ had become /r/ by a process called rhotacism, rendering the letter Z useless.
The most common Arabic names for a lover are Habibi (حبيبي) for a male and Habibti (حبيبتي) for a female, meaning "my beloved" or "my darling". Other popular terms express deep affection, such as Qalbi (قلبي) (my heart), Roohi (روحي) (my soul), and Hayati (حياتي) (my life).
The Arabic past tense, known as “تصريف الفعل الماضي” (al-māḍī), is used to describe completed actions in the past. It carries within it the subject's identity, meaning the verb endings change to show who performed the action.
كان • (kān) (verbal noun كون (kōn)) (copulative) to be (see usage notes) (in the past-tense, auxiliary)
ڨ, a letter derived from qāf and used for /ɡ/ in Tunisia and Algeria. Ng (Arabic letter)
ڤ (fe be-tálat nóʔaṭ) is not considered a distinct letter, but a variant of ف (fe) that is sometimes used to write foreign names and loanwords with the phoneme IPA: /v/. It can be written and pronounced as a ف (fe) instead.
The Letter “ي” (Ya) is the 28th and final letter of the Arabic alphabet. It's unique because it serves as both a consonant—like the “y” sound in “yes”—and a long vowel, like the “ee” sound in “see.” That it can serve this dual purpose makes it one of the most important and useful letters of Arabic.
Shadda, also known as tashdid, serves as a crucial diacritical mark in Arabic, indicating the doubling or gemination of a consonant within a word. It takes the form of a small 'w' shape written above or below a letter (ـّ) to signify the pronunciation of a consonant with emphasis or a doubled sound.
