What does amamha mean in Arabizi?

amamha is how you write أَمامها in Arabizi, the Arabic chat alphabet. It means “in front of her”. No numbers in this one; it spells out in plain Latin letters.

New to the chat alphabet? See how every letter and number maps: the Arabizi → Arabic guide. Got it the other way round, with Arabic script to convert? That is the Arabic to Arabizi converter.

How to type it

The keystrokes, in order.

On a standard Arabic 101 / Arabic-PC layout — 7 key presses. Diacritics sit on the Shift keys. The on-screen keyboard on this site highlights each key as you go.

It sits in the descriptions lesson of our Arabic typing practice course, if you would rather drill it next to the words it turns up with.
