Juju's story: The Happy Hiker
Ḥaa is happy and hollow.
Ḥaa is a hiker who loves fresh air. He doesn't want to carry anything at all. No bags, no snacks, just a big empty belly. He says "Ḥaaa" because he feels so light! No dots.
Sound: a breathy h from the throat, like fogging up a mirror: "haaa".
Looks like: ج Jeem, خ Khaa. Look at the dots to tell them apart!
Juju's Letter Train: Ḥaa at the start, middle and end
Arabic letters hold hands like a train. Start reading at the engine on the right, then walk back along the train. The letter changes its look in each spot.
