Arabic Tashkeel: Add Diacritics to Your Text

Tashkeel refers to the small marks placed above and below Arabic letters that show short vowels and pronunciation, such as fatha, kasra, damma, sukoon, and shadda. Standard Arabic writing usually omits them, leaving the reader to infer the vowels, but adding them removes ambiguity and makes a word read in one clear way. This tool helps you add tashkeel to plain Arabic text.

Diacritics matter most where exact pronunciation is essential. They are used in the Quran, in classical poetry, in childrens learning materials, and in texts prepared for people learning Arabic as a new language. They can also distinguish words that share the same consonants but differ in meaning, helping the reader pick the intended sense at a glance.

Who Benefits from Adding Tashkeel

Teachers preparing reading exercises, students practising correct pronunciation, content creators producing educational material, and anyone formatting text for clarity all rely on tashkeel. Paste your Arabic passage and use the tool to produce a vocalised version you can copy into your documents or lessons. Keep in mind that Arabic vocalisation can depend on grammar and context, so it is good practice to review the result, especially for sensitive or religious texts where accuracy is paramount.
