Modern Standard Arabic, or fusha, is the Arabic of news, schoolbooks and official notices, and educated listeners across the Arab world follow it. Daily speech happens in dialects that differ by country. Use this page when one script must reach the whole region; for a casual script aimed at one country, pick its dialect above.
Arabic is normally written without short vowels, so كتب could be kataba (he wrote) or kutub (books). Add tashkeel only where a listener could take the wrong reading, then preview the line. A word that still comes out wrong can be given a fixed reading in the pronunciation dictionary.
Arabic runs right to left, but Latin-letter brand names and numbers run left to right inside it, so punctuation can seem to jump in the editor. Keep each English name as one unbroken word, use one digit style (Western or Arabic-Indic) throughout, and use the Arabic comma (،) and question mark (؟).
What people make with Standard Arabic voice over
News-style explainers
Turn a news summary or market update into a short spoken bulletin in fusha, the register Arabic news audiences expect.
Courses for Arabic-speaking students
Narrate lessons and lecture summaries in Standard Arabic, the language of textbooks across the region, with one voice for the whole course.
Ramadan and Eid campaigns
Write one fusha version of a seasonal ad for the whole region, then add dialect versions from the pages above for your main markets.
Public announcements
Airports, hospitals and banks in the region often use formal Arabic for notices, and one voice for all of them keeps the series consistent.

Choose Standard Arabic for formal content or anything meant for the whole region: news, training, documentaries, official messages. Choose a dialect for a conversational script aimed at one country, such as a social ad for Egypt. Many teams make both: a fusha master script plus dialect versions for their biggest markets.
No. Most Arabic text is written without it, and you can paste yours as it is. Add the marks to words that could be read two ways, to names people often misread, and to poetry or classical quotes where the exact vowels matter. Listen to those lines first, and give any stubborn word a fixed reading in the pronunciation dictionary.
