Ẓaa has a zap of starlight.
Ẓaa is a tent too, but it's night time! There is a tiny star (the dot) shining right next to the tent pole.
Sound: a heavy th, as in this, said deep.
Looks like: ط Ṭaa. Look at the dots to tell them apart!
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.
