But it's just the opener...So just let me know how it is :)

[Mawaddah]

Oh it's just an opener is it? No wonder........I was a bit surprised when I only saw 2 lines lol.

But Masha'allah that's a nice opening for a story......and no there's not 1000 mistakes lol...but it's more like 3 ........ But go on!! I would love to read the rest Insha'allah and i'm sure others will too.

I would write a story too.....but I can't be bothered to type out on those .....what do you call them? visual keyboards? or something like that :-\

[afriend]

LOL....oh no, I wud never use those visual keyboards, it'll take me all year....;D

[Mawaddah]

^ I think he's trying to say, I couldn't open my eyes , but he got the past tense and all that mixed up that's all..........right bro?

[amirah_87]

ASS SALAAMU ALAYKUM

is that so akhee...need any help!!

[afriend]

Oh and how do I install Arabic fonts on my computer?

1. Control panel
2.Regional and language options (the one with the globe)
3.click on the languages tab
4.check the first check box (if u don't get asked for an XP CD. then continue)
5.after installing, u may have to restart, so follow steps 1&2 again, this time, click on details, this is the keyboard settings, now click add, and add whichever Arabic keyboard u wish (i would recomend Saudi Arabian ;)).
6. Now, next to the system tray there is either a 'EN' or 'AR' click it and select which keyboard you would like to use.....

If all doesn't work, please let me know :)

[afriend]

^ I think he's trying to say, I couldn't open my eyes , but he got the past tense and all that mixed up that's all..........right bro?

[amirah_87]

[Mawaddah]

Jazakallah for the instructions Bro!! Princess you download it too and then we'll write stories and compare them alright? ;D

right...I was kinda on that bit

Well no problem then....you almost got it right but like this would be correct insha'allah :

لااستطعت فتح عيناي

Or should it be Maa instead of Laa Princess? :?

[afriend]

maa istada3tu an aftah 3aynayya

ما إستضعت عينيا؟

[amirah_87]

ass salaamu alaykum

مااستطعت أن أفتح عيناي

Bro Iqram like that ^^

[amirah_87]

maa istada3tu an aftah 3aynayya

ما إستضعت عينيا؟

yeah sorta..

1)you forgot the "an"
2)the daa..is the daa with the stivk and no dots!
3)the last yaa in 3aynayya..is the normal yaa al-mutakalimmah...it just has a shaddah, no alif
