ISO 233-2:1993
edit
ISO 233-2:1993
is an
ISO
schema for the simplified transliteration of Arabic characters into Roman characters and is dedicated to "Arabic language – Simplified transliteration".
This transliteration system was adopted as an amendment to ISO 233:1984. It is used mainly in library context, and was introduced because ISO 233 was not meeting the indexing purposes, which are essential for the consistency of library catalogs.
According to ISO 233-2(1993), Arabic words are vocalized prior to romanization.
ISO 233-2 is used in
French
libraries
and in
North African
libraries, and is recommended by
ISSN
for establishing key titles when cataloguing serials.
ISO 233-3:2023
edit
ISO 233-3:2023 (previous version: ISO 233-3:1999) is dedicated to "Persian language – Simplified transliteration".
ISO/R 233:1961
edit
ISO/R 233 is an earlier standard that has been withdrawn.
