There are many versions of the Qur'an written with different scripts. The Uthmani script is older, but more complicated. The Simple (Imla'ei) script is easier. It's easier to read it in the form of a "computer-generated" text, than from scanned images. The printed Qur'an has additional "stop marks" and widened letters and other "fancy" content, which might be too complicated/distracting/misleading for a beginner reader. | There are many versions of the Qur'an written with different scripts.

There are English websites which provide word-by-word translation and grammatical analysis of the Qur'an <ref>http://corpus.quran.com/wordbyword.jsp</ref> so you practically don't need to know the Arabic grammar. | |||
