Kufic script with red vocalization dots (harakat), and thin black lines for i'jam, from an early Qur'an. (Verse 202 of Surah Al-Baqara). Early manuscripts of the Qur'an did not use diacritics for either vowels (harakat) or to distinguish the different values of the rasm. The harakat were introduced first, as a red dot placed above, below, or beside the rasm, and later the i'jaam were introduced, as thin, short black single or multiple dashes placed above or below the rasm. The i'jaam became black dots about the same time as the harakat became small black letters or strokes. I would choose such translations: Ukrainian:пунктуацiя, розcтановка роздiлових знакiв; Russian: пунктуация, расстановка знаков препинания, акцентирование; English: pointing, punctuation; -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2008-06-14 18:45:26 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- English: punctuation, stops, detached member. |
