There are 29 letters in the Arabic alphabet, all consonants.

The Arabic vowels (Harakaat) Fathah, Kasrah, and Dammah are not
part of Arabic alphabet, but they are naturally pronounced when letters are joined to make words and words are joined to make sentences.

Fathah is a tiny diagonal stroke (/) above a letter. It produces the sound "ā" like " Ba"(slightly soft side) in 'Banana'

In this lesson the letters have a fatha above them.

At the top of the page the letters appear in the same format as those in lesson one, only with a Fatha above them.

The shapes of individual letters may vary change depending upon the combinations used; nevertheless, the distinctive shape of each letter can still be easily recognized.

The letters at the bottom of the page are joined to make words and appear slightlt different. The number of dots on a letter and its overall shape can help you easily determine what letter is present.
