Cracking the Arabic writing code


This afternoon been in the library exploring my files on memory key ..found some of my self taught Arabic PowerPoint slides..  Was brilliant on the way home with my print outs saw my Yemeni neighbour that confirmed my writing and was impressed. 

I should be reading more and speaking more as put some time into cracking the Arabic code and unravelling the squiggly writing over the last 10 years.. The letters are absolutely representative of the sound made.. The trickery is that the letters change whether beginning, middle or end of the word being made. So what I do is paste the completed word into a text box in PowerPoint I then copy into another text box that when I elongate breaks back into the individual letters again. So I can study the changing shape as they make up the word. 

We all know the script is written from right to left..
