How to Write Numbers in Arabic Words
Arabic number words are not a simple symbol swap. The value 123 can be written out as مئة وثلاثة وعشرون. This converter focuses on that wording, uses Modern Standard Arabic, keeps the output in right-to-left Arabic text, and lets you change the grammatical settings that matter when a number is used with a noun.

Masculine and Feminine Arabic Number Forms
Arabic numbers interact with grammatical gender. One can be واحد or واحدة. With counted nouns, numbers 3 through 10 usually use gender polarity: ثلاثة كتب but ثلاث سيارات. Compound numbers keep that contrast in the unit part, so 27 books is سبعة وعشرون كتابا, while 27 cars is سبع وعشرون سيارة.
Why This Converter Is More Complete
The converter is built as a testable grammar engine rather than a single page of string replacements. It normalizes typed numeric input, supports values up to 999,999,999,999,999, reads decimals either as a number or digit by digit, includes ordinal, percentage, fraction, and currency modes, and exposes case, gender, 100-spelling, and billion-word options. The current automated suite checks more than 500 cases, including mandatory examples for standalone numbers, counted nouns, decimals, negatives, percentages, fractions, and input normalization. For legal, financial, or fully vocalized Arabic, the page still shows review notes because Arabic wording can depend on sentence context and regional convention.

| 10 | عشرة | عشر |
Arabic Numbers from 11 to 19
Numbers 11 and 12 have special forms, and 13 through 19 combine a unit with عشر or عشرة. The counted noun is normally singular accusative in formal grammar.
| Number | Masculine | Feminine |
|---|---|---|
| 11 | أحد عشر | إحدى عشرة |
| 12 | اثنا عشر | اثنتا عشرة |
| 13 | ثلاثة عشر | ثلاث عشرة |
| 14 | أربعة عشر | أربع عشرة |
| 15 | خمسة عشر | خمس عشرة |
| 16 | ستة عشر | ست عشرة |
| 17 | سبعة عشر | سبع عشرة |
| 18 | ثمانية عشر | ثمان عشرة |
| 19 | تسعة عشر | تسع عشرة |
Arabic Tens from 20 to 90
The tens do not change for gender, but they do change for case. Nominative forms end in ون, while accusative and genitive forms end in ين.
| Number | Nominative | Accusative / genitive |
|---|---|---|
| 20 | عشرون | عشرين |
| 30 | ثلاثون | ثلاثين |
| 40 | أربعون | أربعين |
| 50 | خمسون | خمسين |
| 60 | ستون | ستين |
| 70 | سبعون | سبعين |
| 80 | ثمانون | ثمانين |
| 90 | تسعون | تسعين |
Arabic Hundreds, Thousands, and Millions
Hundreds combine with the rest of the number using و: مئة وخمسة وعشرون. Large numbers are read in groups of three digits: thousands, millions, billions, and trillions. This is why 1,234,567 becomes مليون ومئتان وأربعة وثلاثون ألفا وخمسمئة وسبعة وستون.
Common Mistakes
- Using a masculine number form for a feminine counted noun.
- Ignoring the 3-10 gender polarity rule.
- Writing 12 without checking nominative, accusative, and genitive forms.
- Using عشرون where a sentence requires عشرين.
- Assuming every large number can be translated word by word from English.
