How do i spell my name in arabic?
Hi, here they are (remember that Arabic is written and read from right to left):





Nichols = 亘丕賱丕賳賰賱賷夭賷丞


Sienna = 爻賷賷賳丕 鬲乇亘丞


Ashley = 丕卮賱賷


Marc = 賲丕乇賰





You can copy and paste it to a word processing program or rewrite it again with arabic fonts that you might add to Word, Wordperfect, Frontpage etc.





You can download free arabic fornts from this site just by doubleclicking any link below the first two have many different types 50-100 of arabic fonts and istalation instructions third has less fonts 3-4:

http://www.alanwood.net/unicode/fonts.ht...

You can use any keyboard as long as you have a CD rom of any windows version from Win 98 on just by going to Start%26gt; Settings%26gt; Control Panel%26gt;Regional and language options%26gt; (window opens and shows 3 options regional, languages and advanced) Coose languages and make sure you choose or have chosen both options to install east and asian fonts and also complex script fonts, then choose advanced on top and of a scroll list choose arabic and add) Then you will have arabic fonts in your computer.





Then go back to top languages and choose details it will show you the language set in you keyboard, on the right press the add button and of the scroll list that appears choose any of 3 or 4 arabic fonts that come with windows and add it. Ok it or apply. Below it will show you what key combinations you must use to change rapidly the keyboard language (usually Shift - Ctrl or Control Caps or Shif Caps, choose the one you are most confortable with Ok and apply then anytime you press that key combination your keyboard will change from english to arabic and to restor to english do it again.





The windows system is calculated so that the windows letter e.g. l when pressed it writes down the arabic l. Of course its not perfect and some signs that represent sounds uncommon in the english language you must find by pressing the non letter keys e.g. ^*?98765=/%26amp;%26amp;% or whatever till you find the sign you need) it is not perfect but it enables you to write in arabic if you know arabic and if not at least to translaiterate sounds and letters.





also doubleclicking the links below will take you to sites where you can do free english - arabic translations (and other language pairs) of text - is machine translation so it is not perfect but gives you a rough draft:





Translates whole texts and web pages:

Only translates single words or terms

Hope it helps

Let me advise you that this is not going to work out. Explaining why is a little complicated, however.
