Since the 1990s, PCs, the Internet, emails and text messaging have become very popular in the. Arab world. At first, this technology could only use Roman script (English characters). So, Arabic- speaking users started using the English alphabet to communicate with each other in Arabic
To use Arabish, you choose the English. character that matches the sound of the Arabic letter you want to write. For example, for khaleej, you use '5' to represent the 'kh' sound — so the Arabish word is written 5aleej.
