Ok, I will hide myself under a rock and not be shown for some time

Thanks Dom !
Thanks for the explanation.
This will surely help understanding these inscriptions in the future.

This also makes me very curious to the elegible part.
That must be something local / sumatran.
Let's see if we can find some more helpers


Best regards,

We have to understand the vocabulary to read jawi because there is no vowel mark/harakat, but it sounded close enough to admir or samir & muhamad or mukamad, but again might read something else. In this particular case the script is rather vague. I think we should read the number in this direction <- no?
Maybe there's a better opinion from someone else, but hope this help.

That is a good point. Shouldn't arabic be read right to left?

Yes ... EXCEPTED ... for numbers
don't seems coherent, but it's the fact

e.i. ٢٠١٠ for 2010
it's read as; halfen (2000) achara (10)
===>> ===>>
littLe more complicated ١٢٣٤ for 1234
it's read as; half (1000) miten (200) arba (4) thalateen (30)

we are following me

here to complete your chart for oriental number

Arabic 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Persian variant ۰ ۱ ۲ ۳ ۴ ۵ ۶ ۷ ۸ ۹

Thanks Dom for the clarification. Much like French numeric reading.

By the way, another variation that I have regarding the scrip: admir mahmud or makmud? only until the better translation comes their way
