Back to have more knowledge about the Arabic alphabet. After learning three letters in the Arabic alphabet, now it is time to go for the next letter in Arabic letters which is the letter thaa. If you have already seen our blogs about the Arabic Alphabet, you will notice that the previous two letters are similar in structure and shape to the letter discussed in this blog.

The letter thaa is the second letter in the Arabic alphabet and it is equivalent to the English combination th as in (thought), thaa Arabic letter is easy to pronounce and detect because it corresponds somewhat to the combination th. And just like the letters Baa and Taa, it only functions as a consonant letter. With Kaleela’s blogs, you will find all you need to know about the letter thaa.


Get to know the letter thaa in Arabic

Before we start with the shapes of the letter thaa, we need to demonstrate an important note that states that the letter thaa can connect itself from both sides. Also, remember that there are some Arabic letters that can only be connected from the right side as shown below in the table in the first group and the rest from both sides as in the 2nd group.

 

1st group: 

Connected from the right side

أ\و\د\ذ\ر\ز

2nd group: 

Connected from both sides

ب\ت\ث\ج\ح\خ\س\ش\ص\ض\ط\ظ\ع\غ\ف\ق\ك\ل\م\ن\ه\ي

 

 

Since the letter thaa falls in the second group, it can be connected from both sides. Now, let us get to know the letter thaa and give some Arabic letter thaa words after the video.

 



As shown in the video, this is the shape of the letter thaa standing alone. The form of the letter thaa changes depending on where it appears in a word. Whether it comes at the beginning of the word (initial), middle of the word (medial), or ending of the word (final). But firstly, notice that thaa is a long, horizontal curve with three dots above it when it is standing alone and written like this “ث.” Now, let us know the different shapes of the letter thaa and give some Arabic words with thaa.
