What does mu3allimatik mean in Arabizi?
mu3allimatik is how you write مُعَلِّمَتِك in Arabizi, the Arabic chat alphabet. It means “your teacher”.
The 3 stands for ع (ayn): a throaty sound. No clean English equivalent. 3 is a mirrored ع.
For the rest of the chat alphabet, see the Arabizi → Arabic guide. Got it the other way round, with Arabic script to convert? That is the Arabic to Arabizi converter.

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