About Kalima

Kalima is an Arabic Wordle-style puzzle that runs entirely in your browser, with no separate install. In daily challenge mode everyone shares the same solution for your device’s calendar date; when the local date advances, the puzzle resets to a new word, which makes score comparisons easy without spoiling letters. In practice mode you pick a length from four to eight letters and receive a fresh random Arabic word from a curated pool each round.

The UI is RTL-first: grid and keyboard follow Arabic reading flow, and guesses must exist in the game dictionary, not merely look like Arabic letters.

For deeper tactics see our Tips & Strategy page and the Arabic letter frequency guide.

Why Arabic Wordle is different

English Wordle assumes LTR scanning and letter-frequency habits (think E, R, A). Arabic reads RTL and favors different starters: openings that include ا، ل، م، ن، ي، ة often collide quickly with real roots and feminine endings, while rare consonants are worth delaying.

Kalima validates against a curated list without treating shadda or madda as separate tiles; diacritics are stripped when checking guesses, so strategy hinges on base letters, not harakat.
