How the heck would you use a dictionary if vo were turned off? Do you have to
speak the words you want translated?

Hi Aman,
I am interested in your comment about writing in Arabic. I know the Arabic
braille alphabet, not grade II, just the letter for letter substitution. So if
I have a braille display connected via bluetooth to an iPhone and I set input
for grade I braille, I assume I'd also have to set
Dear Mary,
To chime in on your comments on an accessible Arabic/English dictionary, I use
translate.google.com page where you can set your language to whatever you wish.
I use it primarily for Greek but with my macbook air - I haven't tried it with
an iOs device. But if you want to use it with
Hi Andrew,
Thanks for that hint. I'm still running Snow Leopard on my 3-year-old Mac mini
so I don't have the voice for Arabic here as is present with Lion and Mountain
Lion. I also think there were improvements to braille support for languages
other than English introduced after Snow Leopard.
Dear Mary,
I hope you will be able to upgrade your system. Whilst upgrading to Mountain
Lion has brought more languages for me, certainly a decent language for Greek
for free and Russian of course as well as others, iOs 6 upgrade - as I've often
and boringly said before - has broken the Greek
Mary, Heather and all,
The keyboard works wonderfully as well. I'm not a fan of Majid, which is the HQ
voice for Arabic, but he does the job. Arabic is a complete beast for screen
readers because short vowels are not written and must be deduced from context.
Nonetheless, it works wonderfully!
Truth be told, Ben, I'm not a fan of the Arabic voice either, but it sure beats
a blank. There are a couple of other Arabic voices in the Acapella voice set,
but I don't know if you can get those for Mac. Haven't tried. And you can't
have them on ios, because Apple won't let 3rd party stuff
I think they have atalking arabic to english dictionary, some of the words
it does not translate correctly! My friend has this dictionary and she said
there was an app but you have to turn off vo when you use it! Heather

Hello.
Arabic has been supported in voice-overs since iOS six. It is supported in
both speech and braille. If you're asking about dictation support, that is not
available with Siri, but is using Dragon.
I hope that is of use.

Heather,
When I bought my iPhone 5, I was told at the Apple store about this
support page for blind people:
http://www.apple.com/accessibility/iphone/vision.html
On this page it says:

Hello Heather:
You should be able to read and write Arabic on the Phone with VoiceOver.
I believe this has been the case since either version 5 or version 4.3,
I can't remember.
Cheers,

Hello, Heather.
First, keep in mind that you can write Arabic as easily as you can English or
any other language based on the Roman alphabet/keyboard. One can add keyboards
as usual through general, international, keyboards. Yes, your friend should be
able to dictate to Dragon which support
