Amount in words
One thousand two hundred fifty dirhams and fifty fils only
English
One thousand two hundred fifty dirhams and fifty fils only
Arabic
ألف ومائتان وخمسون درهماً وخمسون فلساً فقط لا غير
Arabic wording: first review by Claude, awaiting review by a native speaker.
How it works
- Type the amount, up to 999,999,999,999.99 with no more than two decimals.
- Choose the currency: AED in dirhams and fils, SAR in riyals and halalas, USD in dollars and cents, or no currency.
- Pick English, Arabic or both.
- Copy the words. English ends with “only” and Arabic with “فقط لا غير”, as on cheques and invoices.

Questions
How do I write 1,250.50 dirhams in words?
In English: One thousand two hundred fifty dirhams and fifty fils only. The Arabic follows the same amount, with the dirham and fils in their correct grammatical forms.
Why do invoices and cheques show the amount in words?
Words are harder to change than figures, so they protect against tampering. Banks may refuse a cheque if the figures and words do not match.
Does the Arabic follow the rules of number and noun?
Yes. It follows the standard rules: the noun changes with the number, such as درهمان for two and ثلاثة دراهم for three. The Arabic wording is awaiting review by a native speaker.
What does “No currency” do?
It writes the whole number in words and shows any decimals as a fraction of 100, such as 50/100, for other currencies or general use.
