Template:ar-proper noun

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary

ar-proper noun m


This template is for displaying the headword line of Arabic proper nouns.

Please note that the pronunciation of proper nouns often doesn't match their spelling, in that short vowels are often spelled as long vowels to aid in pronunciation. Furthermore, pronunciation of proper nouns often includes short and long e and o, which cannot be indicated using diacritics. Hence, it may not be possible to adequately specify the pronunciation of an Arabic proper noun using vowel diacritics, and it may also be necessary to explicitly specify a transliteration. An example is كاليفورنيا kāliforniyā, where a spelled long ي (ī) stands for short i, and a spelled long و (ū) stands for short o.

The parameters are exactly identical to those for {{ar-noun}}.
