Numbers & money

Numbers barely change between dialects — mostly th softens to t. Prices and “how much” do change, so they’re marked.

Zero to a thousand

You’ll also see the digits written ٠ ١ ٢ ٣ ٤ ٥ ٦ ٧ ٨ ٩ — Eastern Arabic numerals.

Prices & paying

Most of the Arab world is still fairly cash-friendly, but cards and mobile pay are now common in cities and the Gulf. Carry small notes for taxis, souqs and tips.
