This is the pronunciation key for IPA transcriptions of Arabic on Wikipedia. It provides a set of symbols to represent the pronunciation of Arabic in Wikipedia articles, and example words that illustrate the sounds that correspond to them.

On the other hand, it is considered a native phoneme or allophone in most modern Arabic dialects, mostly as a variant of ق /q/ (as in Arabian Peninsula and Northwest African dialects) or as a variant of /d͡ʒ/ ج (as ...
The Speech! allophone-based speech synthesizer software for the BBC Micro was tweaked to pronounce ghoti as fish. [13] Examination of the code reveals the string GHOTI used to identify the special case. In the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game, there is a series of fish-type cards called "Ghoti". [14]

This phenomenon might be due to the influence of Modern Standard Arabic and neighboring dialects. When speaking or reading Modern Standard Arabic, Hejazi speakers pronounce each consonant distinctly according to its modern standard phonemic value, and any mergers such as the merge between /dˤ/ ض and /ðˤ/ ظ can be stigmatized.
