[edit] Is the correspondence table correct?

I have a quick question. In the correspondence table, shouldn't the "Sin" correspond to «ﺳ» and «ס», while the "Ṣad" correspond to «ﺻ» and «צ»?... or at least the shape suggest so. CJLippert 19:26, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Table of concordances

The Arabic letter given for yaa is not a yaa (ي) but an alif maksoora (ى), a yaa without lower dots.

Also, there is not a common usage of the isolated form of the Arabic letter in the Arabic column; for example haa (ه) is given in its inital form, whereas waw (و) is given in isolated form. This sort of inconsistency is...undesirable. Msanford  T  04:12, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
