چکیده
As a part of multi-media support system for Arabic e-learning, some vehicle should be provided for training students to pronounce Arabic text themselves. Since the Arabic alphabet is phonetic, it seems a good idea to transliterate Arabic into Roman, the most popular language, but there exists a big gap between Arabic and Roman besides a difference between their alphabets; scripting directions. Arabic script is written from right to left, whereas Roman from left to right. What kind of transliteration would let students jump over this gap? Our solution is to render transliteration results as if seen Through the Looking-Glass. We report our process of trials and errors for seeking solutions, and our ultimate solution. Key-Words: E-Learning, Multimedia supporting, Arabic learning, Arabic transliteration.
