The current United Nations recommended romanization
|
|
13
|
+
system was approved in 2017 (resolution XI/3), based on
|
|
14
|
+
the system adopted by Arabic experts at the conference
|
|
15
|
+
held in Beirut in 2007, the Unified Arabic
|
|
16
|
+
Transliteration System, taking into account the
|
|
17
|
+
practical amendments and corrections carried out and
|
|
18
|
+
agreed upon by the representatives of the Arabic-
|
|
19
|
+
speaking countries at the Fourth Arab Conference on
|
|
20
|
+
Geographical Names, held in Beirut in 2008, and some
|
|
21
|
+
clarifications and amendments agreed in Riyadh in 20171.
|
|
22
|
+
Previously, the United Nations had approved a
|
|
23
|
+
romanization system in 1972 (resolution II/8), based on the
|
|
24
|
+
system adopted by Arabic experts at the conference
|
|
25
|
+
held at Beirut in 1971 with the practical amendments carried out
|
|
26
|
+
and agreed upon by the representatives of the Arabic-speaking
|
|
27
|
+
countries at their conference. The table was published in volume
|
|
28
|
+
II of the conference report.
|
|
29
|
+
In UN resolution XI/3 it is specifically stated that the
|
|
30
|
+
system was recommended for the “romanization of the
|
|
31
|
+
geographical names within those Arabic-speaking countries
|
|
32
|
+
where this system is officially adopted”. There is
|
|
33
|
+
evidence of its partial implementation in Jordan, Oman and
|
|
34
|
+
Saudi Arabia. The UNGEGN Working Group on Romanization
|
|
35
|
+
Systems intends to continue monitoring the UN system’s
|
|
36
|
+
implementation across Arabic-speaking countries.
|
|
37
|
+
In some countries there exist local romanization schemes
|
|
38
|
+
or practices. The geographical names of Algeria, Djibouti,
|
|
39
|
+
Mauritania, Morocco and Tunisia are generally rendered in
|
|
40
|
+
the traditional manner which conforms to the principles of
|
|
41
|
+
the French orthography.
|
|
42
|
+
The previous UN-approved system is still found in
|
|
43
|
+
considerable international usage.
|
|
44
|
+
Arabic is written from right to left. The Arabic script
|
|
45
|
+
usually omits vowel points and diacritical marks from
|
|
46
|
+
writing which makes it difficult to obtain uniform results
|
|
47
|
+
in the romanization of Arabic. It is essential to identify
|
|
48
|
+
correctly the words which appear in any particular name
|
|
49
|
+
and to know the standard Arabic-script spelling including
|
|
50
|
+
the relevant vowels. One must also take into account
|
|
51
|
+
dialectal and idiosyncratic deviations. The romanization
|
|
52
|
+
is generally reversible though there may be some ambiguous
|
|
53
|
+
letter sequences (dh, kh, sh, th) which may also point to
|
|
54
|
+
combinations of Arabic characters in addition to the
|
|
55
|
+
respective single characters.

The current United Nations recommended romanization
|
|
13
|
+
system was approved in 2017 (resolution XI/3), based on
|
|
14
|
+
the system adopted by Arabic experts at the conference
|
|
15
|
+
held in Beirut in 2007, the Unified Arabic
|
|
16
|
+
Transliteration System, taking into account the
|
|
17
|
+
practical amendments and corrections carried out and
|
|
18
|
+
agreed upon by the representatives of the Arabic-
|
|
19
|
+
speaking countries at the Fourth Arab Conference on
|
|
20
|
+
Geographical Names, held in Beirut in 2008, and some
|
|
21
|
+
clarifications and amendments agreed in Riyadh in 20171.
|
|
22
|
+
Previously, the United Nations had approved a
|
|
23
|
+
romanization system in 1972 (resolution II/8), based on the
|
|
24
|
+
system adopted by Arabic experts at the conference
|
|
25
|
+
held at Beirut in 1971 with the practical amendments carried out
|
|
26
|
+
and agreed upon by the representatives of the Arabic-speaking
|
|
27
|
+
countries at their conference. The table was published in volume
|
|
28
|
+
II of the conference report.
|
|
29
|
+
In UN resolution XI/3 it is specifically stated that the
|
|
30
|
+
system was recommended for the “romanization of the
|
|
31
|
+
geographical names within those Arabic-speaking countries
|
|
32
|
+
where this system is officially adopted”. There is
|
|
33
|
+
evidence of its partial implementation in Jordan, Oman and
|
|
34
|
+
Saudi Arabia. The UNGEGN Working Group on Romanization
|
|
35
|
+
Systems intends to continue monitoring the UN system’s
|
|
36
|
+
implementation across Arabic-speaking countries.
|
|
37
|
+
In some countries there exist local romanization schemes
|
|
38
|
+
or practices. The geographical names of Algeria, Djibouti,
|
|
39
|
+
Mauritania, Morocco and Tunisia are generally rendered in
|
|
40
|
+
the traditional manner which conforms to the principles of
|
|
41
|
+
the French orthography.
|
|
42
|
+
The previous UN-approved system is still found in
|
|
43
|
+
considerable international usage.
|
|
44
|
+
Arabic is written from right to left. The Arabic script
|
|
45
|
+
usually omits vowel points and diacritical marks from
|
|
46
|
+
writing which makes it difficult to obtain uniform results
|
|
47
|
+
in the romanization of Arabic. It is essential to identify
|
|
48
|
+
correctly the words which appear in any particular name
|
|
49
|
+
and to know the standard Arabic-script spelling including
|
|
50
|
+
the relevant vowels. One must also take into account
|
|
51
|
+
dialectal and idiosyncratic deviations. The romanization
|
|
52
|
+
is generally reversible though there may be some ambiguous
|
|
53
|
+
letter sequences (dh, kh, sh, th) which may also point to
|
|
54
|
+
combinations of Arabic characters in addition to the
|
|
55
|
+
respective single characters.

The United Nations recommended romanization
|
|
13
|
+
system was approved in 1972 (resolution II/8),
|
|
14
|
+
based on the system adopted by Arabic experts at
|
|
15
|
+
the conference held at Beirut in 1971 with the
|
|
16
|
+
practical amendments carried out and agreed upon
|
|
17
|
+
by the representatives of the Arabic-speaking
|
|
18
|
+
countries at their conference. The table was
|
|
19
|
+
published in volume II of the conference report1
|
|
20
|
+
. In the UN resolution it was specifically
|
|
21
|
+
pointed out that the system was recommended "for
|
|
22
|
+
the romanization of the geographical names within
|
|
23
|
+
those Arabic-speaking countries where this system
|
|
24
|
+
is officially acknowledged". It cannot be
|
|
25
|
+
definitely ascertained which of the
|
|
26
|
+
Arabicspeaking countries have adopted this system
|
|
27
|
+
officially, especially since 2007 when there are
|
|
28
|
+
efforts by the Arabic Division to promote a
|
|
29
|
+
modification of the UN system (ADEGN
|
|
30
|
+
romanization, see the section on other
|
|
31
|
+
romanization systems below), with varying
|
|
32
|
+
success2 . Judging by the use of names in
|
|
33
|
+
international cartographic products which rely
|
|
34
|
+
mostly on national sources it appears that the UN
|
|
35
|
+
system or its modification is more or less
|
|
36
|
+
current in Iraq, Kuwait, Libya, Saudi Arabia3 ,
|
|
37
|
+
United Arab Emirates and Yemen, there and in some
|
|
38
|
+
other countries the system is often used without
|
|
39
|
+
diacritical marks. For the geographical names of
|
|
40
|
+
the Syrian Arab Republic international maps
|
|
41
|
+
favour the UN system while the local usage seems
|
|
42
|
+
to prefer a French-oriented romanization. Also in
|
|
43
|
+
Egypt and Sudan there exist local romanization
|
|
44
|
+
schemes or practices side by side with the UN
|
|
45
|
+
system. The geographical names of Algeria,
|
|
46
|
+
Djibouti, Mauritania, Morocco and Tunisia are
|
|
47
|
+
generally rendered in the traditional manner
|
|
48
|
+
which conforms to the principles of the French
|
|
49
|
+
orthography. Resolution 7 of the Seventh UN
|
|
50
|
+
Conference on the Standardization of Geographical
|
|
51
|
+
Names (1998) recommended that "the League of Arab
|
|
52
|
+
States should, through its specialized
|
|
53
|
+
structures, continue its efforts to organize a
|
|
54
|
+
conference with a view to considering the
|
|
55
|
+
difficulties encountered in applying the amended
|
|
56
|
+
Beirut system of 1972 for the romanization of
|
|
57
|
+
Arabic script, and submit, as soon as possible, a
|
|
58
|
+
solution to the United Nations Group of Experts
|
|
59
|
+
on Geographical Names". At the Eighth UN
|
|
60
|
+
Conference on the Standardization of Geographical
|
|
61
|
+
Names (2002), the Arabic Division of the UN Group
|
|
62
|
+
of Experts announced that it had finalised
|
|
63
|
+
proposed modifications to the UN recommended
|
|
64
|
+
romanization system. These proposals would be
|
|
65
|
+
submitted to the League of Arab States for
|
|
66
|
+
approval. Arabic is written from right to left.
|
|
67
|
+
The Arabic script usually omits vowel points and
|
|
68
|
+
diacritical marks from writing which makes it
|
|
69
|
+
difficult to obtain uniform results in the
|

romanization of Arabic. It is essential to

71

+
identify correctly the words which appear in any

72
|
+
particular name and to know the standard Arabic-
|
|
73
|
+
script spelling including proper pointing. One
|
|
74
|
+
must also take into account dialectal and
|
|
75
|
+
idiosyncratic deviations. The romanization is
|
|
76
|
+
generally reversible though there are some
|
|
77
|
+
ambiguous letter sequences (dh, kh, sh, th) which
|
|
78
|

may also point to combinations of Arabic
|

characters in addition to the respective single
