==How to "extract" letters from an Arabic word==
The Arabic letters are written differently in the beginning, middle and end of the word and also when they are written alone. Some of the letters have are connected and some of them are not connected. The easiest way to determine the letters is to copy that word in to a text editor and insert spaces between the letters. That way, you will see their basic form. Some letters look very similar in some cases. Like the letter ف and غ, when they are in a middle of a word. Look at the middle letter:
* ففف (f-f-f)
* غغغ (gh-gh-gh)
Of course the correct way to determine the letters is to learn all the forms of the letters.
