[edit] Uyghur Scouting

Can someone render Tayyar Bol (Be Prepared), the Scout Motto, into Uyghur script? Thanks! Chris 20:17, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] ULY "e" and "é" in UEY

I do not speak Uyghur or Arabic, but I'm interested in alphabets and scripts. Comparing the sample text in the Wikipedia article and at Omniglot, I see that the UEY counterparts to ULY "e" and "é" are not correctly shown to me (the former always as an isolated Arabic letter ae, the latter always as an isolated Arabic letter alef maksura, except at the end of words). Is it just a matter of the standard fonts (I have not installed a special Uyghur font)?

I've found only the basic Arabic letter ae in Unicode without any representation forms, and the basic Arabic letter alef maksura with an isolated and a final representation form, and with a medial and an initial representation form Arabic letter uighur kazakh kirghiz alef maksura (Unicode seems to be too thrifty there). So where does the information come from, how to show the correct forms? -- Sinnierer (talk) 15:03, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
