Regarding games and transcription

Hi, First of all, congratulations for this course that I find is very good. I am just a little bit disappointed about the "games" section. I think that putting just the English transcription of the word and not the Arab writing is not a good choice. For myself, I learn anything with that. In my personal point of view, transcriptions should be avoided if you really want to write and read Arabic. Anyway, I think that is Ok that transcriptions are there for those who think differently or just don't want to learn the writing. But I think that the words written in Arabic should be ALWAYS be there as well. I think that would be a good improvement for this course. P.S: I have just seen that is the same thing for the self test. I really think that this course would be much much better if you always put the Arabic (and the transcription if you want). I'm quite disappointed because for this I won't be able to use this 2 sections of the course (games and self test), that I think could be really useful and "fun". You have to note as well that maybe the transcription is very useful for English speakers but this is not my case and I imagine is the same for many others.

I totally support this idea. They should have option in games and in tests to choose what you want to see, either tranliteration or normal arabic text.

Hi Paula and Keijo, Thanks for your feedback - I'll pass this on to the development team to consider when upgrading the games. I do agree it would be very useful to have Arabic script! Tajuddeen - Have you tried out the My Vocab feature? You can save words to your word list and print them out. You can also using a flash card generator to make your own flash cards like this: http://www.kitzkikz.com/flashcards/ I hope this helps!
