ACE — Legend & Color Coding

Every assembled token uses fixed ACE colors:

• Prefix — imperfect markers (ya-, ta-, na-, ea-)
• Stem — root radicals (r0–r1–r2) + vowels
• Suffix — pronoun endings

Example:

yaktubu

→ prefix (y), stem (aktub), suffix (u)

ACE shows each radical in a distinct color:

• k — r0 (first radical)
• t — r1 (second radical)
• b — r2 (third radical)

Example:

ktb

3.1 Throat letters — RED

ء ه ع ح غ خ

3.2 Qalqalah letters — BLUE

ق ط ب ج د

3.3 Tafkhīm (heavy) — ORANGE

خ ص ض ط ظ غ ق

These colors appear automatically in the Stem Tester, Analyzer, and Quran Viewer.

4.1 Short vowels

4.2 Long vowels

• aA → ā
• iy → ī
• uw → ū

Rules documented for latinToArabic():

• ea → أَ
• ei after long vowel aA → ئ standalone
• eu → ؤُ
• AAumyaAei → عُمْيَاءِ (correct hamza seat)
• (a)lssamaAei → ٱلسَّمَاءِ
• eaAAmaEY → أَعْمَىٰ

Special rules: combination of hamza + long vowel chooses correct seat (ء، ئ، ؤ).

Used for imperfect prefixes & perfect suffixes.

• هو — he
• هما — they two (m/f)
• هم — they (m)
