aa(â) aa(â)
â (extended A as in
"art")
(â) is an extended form of (alef or a) that is used only at the beginning of a word; its sound is similar to the letter 'a' in the word "art".
Example:
The following example shows the
usage of the letter (â) in the word "âmrikâ" (America).
Note that the first and the last letters sound the same (aa); but
since the first 'a' is at the beginning of the word, the letter
"aa(â)" is used instead of the letter
"alef".
