Amounts in words for cheques and invoices
Banks, accountants and government offices often require the amount in words as well as in figures, so that it cannot be altered. The tool writes the whole part and the cents (or halalas, fils, piastres…) with the correct currency name.
Arabic tafqeet done right
- Gender agreement: ثلاثة ريالات but ثلاث ليرات.
- Dual and plural forms: ريالان، ثلاثة ريالات، أحد عشر ريالًا.
- Minor units for each currency: هللة، فلس، قرش، بيسة، سنتيم.
- The optional فقط … لا غير wrapper used on cheques.
24 languages and long numbers
Numbers up to 999 trillion are supported in all 24 site languages, including the lakh and crore system for Hindi, Urdu and Bengali. Without a currency, decimals are read digit by digit after the decimal point.
