Arabic and Persian borrowings are written in their original orthography: "sabit" 'firm' is written as "s̱’bt", with "s̱" representing /s/ (in Arabic /θ/), and "’" representing /aː/ as in Arabic but with no indication of the short /i/. The letters ث ح ذ ض ظ ع are found only in borrowings from Arabic; ژ is only in borrowings from Persian and French. Although the Arabic vowel points ("harakat") can be used "s̱a’bit", they are generally found only in dictionaries and didactic works, as in Arabic and Persian, and they still do not identify vowel sounds unambiguously.
