What does muta7ammis mean in Arabizi?
muta7ammis is how you write مُتَحَمِّس in Arabizi, the Arabic chat alphabet. It means “excited”.
The 7 stands for ح (ḥa): a breathy h, deeper than English h. 7 bends the way ح bends.
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.
