Register, tashkeel, and digits in Arabic scripts

Most Arabic text is written without short vowels, in one script shared by many spoken varieties. These five habits decide how a narrator reads it.

Pick the register before you write

كيف حالك؟ / إزيك؟ / كيفك؟ / شلونك؟

The same "How are you?" reads as Modern Standard Arabic, Egyptian, Levantine, and Gulf. News and e-learning normally use MSA, while ads and social clips often sound better in dialect. Write the dialect in the script or name it in the direction, then listen to a short block first.

Add tashkeel where a word could go two ways

دِين / دَيْن

Without vowel marks, دين can be "religion" or "debt". The narrator guesses from context, which is usually right but not always. Marking only the ambiguous words is enough; there is no need to vowel the whole script.

Eastern Arabic or Western digits both work

١٥ / 15

Both are read as خمسة عشر. Eastern Arabic digits are common from Egypt eastward, and the Maghreb writes Western digits. Use whichever your audience reads and keep to it in one script.

Latin brand names inside a right-to-left line

حمّل تطبيق iOS الجديد

A Latin term such as iOS keeps its English pronunciation while the Arabic around it reads normally. Some editors flip the word order on screen when directions mix, so check the line looks right before you paste it.

Mark evening times

٩:٣٠ م

With م after the time, the narrator says التاسعة والنصف مساءً. Without it, a 12-hour time leaves the listener guessing whether it is morning or night.

Formal Arabic and dialect reads, side by side

Two clips stay in Modern Standard Arabic, one asks for a Gulf accent, and one for a Levantine one. The Arabic text barely changes; the direction line does the work.

Customer testimonials

See why creators, publishers, and teams rely on Narration Box for natural-sounding voice content.

“Quality of voices and ease of use made Narration Box the perfect choice for my fiction podcast The Program. It's the only voice synthesis service that knew the difference between 'live frugally' and 'live broadcast' and that could pronounce Mar-a-Lago.”
Ivan
Creator, The program audio series
“We've been using Narration Box for a while now, and are grateful to the team behind it! It allows us to create audio versions of our books and articles in many languages, within seconds. The generated audio sounds very natural and is almost indistinguishable from a real narrator. What an amazing service for creators, and it keeps evolving! I highly recommend it.”
Reto Stuber
CEO, Stuber Media
“The user-interface is great. Nice and simple without too many bells and whistles. The array of voices are also good, though some are definitely better than others. With that said, you can adjust the speaking pace for each voice, which does improve the flow, making voices seem less artificial. Also, the free plan is generous.”
Tom W.
Filmmaker
Review on G2
“Narration Box has allowed me to get away from having to set up my own recording studio. Previously, I had an idea of hiring a human narrator but there was so much hassle as well as costs. The voice choices are pretty good, especially the enhanced voices. I love the options available to further personalize the AI narrator's speech within the text. Narration Box saved me so much time for several small projects. I actually made audio clips whilst writing another book.”

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Questions about Arabic dialects, vowel marks, mixed English, and exports.

Arabic text to speech
Can I test an Arabic script before paying anything?

Yes. The free plan gives you 1,000 words without a credit card. Downloads on that plan include a watermark, so use them for testing; a paid plan removes it and adds more words.

Which Narration Box voices handle MSA and Arabic dialects?

Across Narration Box there are 1,500+ AI voices across 80+ languages, including Enbee V1 voices made for Arabic. The samples on this page use our 21 Enbee V2 narrators (12 female, 9 male), and any of them can switch between Modern Standard Arabic and a requested dialect accent.

Can I get Egyptian, Levantine, or Gulf Arabic instead of MSA?

Write the dialect in the style instruction, for example "Speak in Egyptian Arabic", and write the script in that dialect if you can. Accent requests vary by narrator, so generate a short block first and listen before you voice the whole script.

Do I need to add tashkeel to my Arabic text?

Not to the whole script. Unvowelled text reads fine in most cases. Add marks to words that could be read two ways, such as دِين and دَيْن, and to names the narrator gets wrong in the preview.

Will English words in an Arabic sentence be read correctly?

Yes, if they stay in Latin letters. Product names such as iOS or Instagram are said in English and the Arabic carries on around them. Check the line in your editor first, since mixed-direction text can display out of order.

What happens to riyal amounts, Eastern Arabic digits, and evening times?

Keep the currency on the amount, as in ١٢٥ ر.س, and it is read as riyals. Eastern Arabic and Western digits are both read in Arabic. For times, add م for the evening so the narrator says مساءً.

Can a cloned voice speak Arabic for my courses and announcements?

Yes, from a short sample of a voice you own or have permission to use. Assign the clone to any block. How well an accent carries over into Arabic varies, so review the first few blocks closely.

Can each phone prompt be its own file, and which formats are there?

Export MP3, WAV, Opus, FLAC, or OGG, as one file or one file per block, which suits phone systems that need each prompt separately. Paid plans include commercial use under the subscription terms.
