تقطیع

Type or paste a misra (one per line) in Urdu script or Roman Urdu. Every syllable is weighed, the bahr is found, and a line that breaks is shown exactly where, with repairs drawn from your own words. A line is only called mawzoon when the engine is certain.

Roman: long vowels aa ii uu e o ai au · short a i u · ñ for nasal · ' for 'ain or hamza · -e for izafat. Urdu script: mark izafat with a zer (دلِ) or hamza (شوخئ).
