Feature
Built for Arabic, not adapted to it.
TranslateX handles right-to-left natively: Arabic punctuation ؟ ، ؛ used correctly, typography nuance respected, layouts mirrored when the writing direction flips, and QA checks written for Arabic itself, from hamza seats to taa marbuta. Powered by Lisan's own Arabic AI models, with Lisan L3 as the top-quality tier.
Arabic-first engineering
Most tools add Arabic later.
TranslateX started there.
Lisan is an Arabic AI company. TranslateX was engineered from the first line for the language most translation tools treat as an afterthought, and it shows in the details.
Native RTL and LTR
Direction is not a setting.
It is the whole page.
Arabic does not just read right to left; it flows right to left. Margins, alignment, tables, slide layouts, list markers, the position of every text box: all of it assumes a direction. TranslateX handles RTL and LTR natively, in both the engine and the documents it rebuilds, so an Arabic page behaves like an Arabic page rather than an English page with reversed text.
Punctuation gets the same care. The Arabic question mark ؟, the Arabic comma ،, and the Arabic semicolon ؛ are their own characters with their own rules, and TranslateX uses them correctly instead of leaving Latin punctuation stranded in Arabic sentences. Typography nuance, from letter shaping to spacing conventions, is treated as part of translation, not a formatting problem for later.
- Native right-to-left and left-to-right handling throughout
- Arabic punctuation: ؟ ، ؛ placed and rendered correctly
- Typography nuance respected in the rebuilt document

QA that reads Arabic as Arabic: hamza seats, taa marbuta, kashida, diacritics, and Arabic punctuation, alongside the standard checks.
Layout mirroring
When the direction flips,
the design flips with it.
Arabic to English is the hard case in document translation, because the entire page changes direction. TranslateX mirrors the layout so the result reads naturally, not backwards.
RTL ↔ LTR mirroring
Slides that flip like they were designed twice.
Take an Arabic board deck into English and every shape has to move: the title block that hugged the right edge belongs on the left, the arrow that pointed leftward through a process now points right, the sidebar swaps sides. TranslateX mirrors shape positions in PowerPoint when the writing direction flips, and applies the same directional logic to Word documents and PDFs.
The result is a translated copy that looks like it was designed in the target language from the start. No text boxes hanging off the wrong margin, no tables reading against the grain, no afternoon of dragging shapes back into place.
- PPTX shape positions mirrored when direction flips
- Tables, alignment, and margins follow the new direction
- Works both ways: Arabic to English and English to Arabic
Same deck, two directions. The structure mirrors; nothing is redesigned by hand.
Arabic-specific QA
Quality checks that actually
read Arabic.
Generic QA counts numbers and spaces. Arabic needs more than that, and TranslateX ships checks written for the script itself.
Hamza seats
The hamza sits on an alif, a waw, a yaa, or the line, and the wrong seat is a spelling error. TranslateX checks hamza seating so أ, إ, ؤ, and ئ land where Arabic orthography puts them.
Taa marbuta
The difference between ه and ة changes the word. QA flags taa marbuta confusion, one of the most common and most visible errors in machine-produced Arabic.
Kashida and tatweel
Stretch characters used for justification can survive translation as junk. TranslateX detects stray kashida so the output stays clean for publication.
Diacritics and punctuation
Diacritics are checked for consistency, and Arabic punctuation ؟ ، ؛ is verified alongside the standard checks: untranslated segments, number mismatches, double spaces, and length ratio.
Lisan models
Our own Arabic AI,
not a wrapper around someone else's.
Lisan builds its own AI models for Arabic, trained and tuned for the language and the institutional documents written in it. In TranslateX you choose the tier per job: L1 when speed and volume matter most, up to Lisan L3, the top-quality tier for documents that ship with your name on them. An on-premises local model option serves deployments where documents cannot leave the building.
Owning the models matters. It is why Arabic punctuation, orthography checks, and institutional register are engineering features here rather than wishlist items, and why more than 24 government entities work with Lisan.

Frequently asked questions
What makes TranslateX better for Arabic than generic translators?
It was engineered Arabic-first by an Arabic AI company. That means native RTL handling in the engine and in rebuilt documents, correct Arabic punctuation ؟ ، ؛, typography nuance, mirrored layouts when direction flips, and QA checks specific to Arabic orthography, all running on Lisan's own models.
What are the Arabic-specific QA checks?
Hamza seat verification, taa marbuta checks (ه versus ة), stray kashida and tatweel detection, and diacritics consistency, on top of the standard checks for untranslated segments, number mismatches, double spaces, punctuation, and length ratio.
What happens to the layout when translating Arabic to English?
The layout is mirrored. PowerPoint shape positions flip when the writing direction changes, and tables, margins, and alignment follow the new direction in Word and PDF too, so the translated copy reads naturally instead of backwards. See layout preservation.
Which right-to-left languages are supported?
Arabic, Urdu, and Persian, out of more than 20 languages in the product, with automatic source-language detection. Arabic and English are the flagship pair. See languages for the full list.
What is Lisan L3?
The top-quality tier of Lisan's own translation models. TranslateX lets you pick the model per job, from L1 for the fastest turnaround up to Lisan L3 for publication-grade output, plus a local model option for on-premises deployments.
Translate the document. Keep the design.
Right-click a file, work inside Office, or press F6 on anything on screen. TranslateX returns the same document in the other language: fonts, tables, and layout intact, terminology on brand.
