I'm taking Arabic this semester, and one of our final assignments is to type a 175+ word essay in Arabic.
If you own a Mac and have reason to type in Arabic, you've probably seen the Arabic-QWERTY keyboard layout that comes standard with Mac OS X, which has the keys assigned intuitively for a non-native speaker who's used to a normal, QWERTY English keyboard and probably associates Arabic letters and sounds with comparable ones in the Latin alphabet.
