A friend sent me a link to Yamli, a website which does a bunch of things my two favorite being:
1) You search the Arabic web but using English letters. Meaning you type the Arabic as it sounds using English characters like 3arabi and it will convert it for you to عربي
2) You can type a document in Arabic but again using English letters and it will do the conversion for you as you type.
You can try it out, its easy. [Link]
Thanks Katia!

man they created sites for everything this is the latest!
omg
this has got to be the best site i have ever seen
god i hate this type writing
99 percent of people writing in this style have an arabic keyboard, but they think that’s a cool way!!
some people even have a blogs based on this shit
grow up people
There’s another website with the same idea called onkosh.com
I’ve been part of the project for 2 month…cool site
That is very, VERY impressive! I wish I could use that in an OS!
This type of writing gives me a damn headache!!
That’s shameful.
It’s good for people who don’t have Arabic keyboards, but generally its endorsing writing Arabic in English to sound cool and westernized when they can type in Arabic.
Shameful.
AMAZING!!!!!! Thanks for posting this
this is perfect for those who want to learn the language.. i need this for some people at the office! thx.
And that was the end of Arabic as we know it …
i think it’s a useful application because in the arab world we dont speak the official language as we write it,, and in everyday use, we tend to write in dialect, which looks awkward written in arabic letters. Contrary to people who think it’s shameful not to use arabic as they type, i believe writing in “3arabinglish” protects our official language from mutation.
