====Alif maqṣūrah: {{big|ى}}====
{{Anchor|alifmaqsura|alif maqsura|Aifmasqsura|Alif maqsura}}
The '''<big>ى</big>''' ('limited/restricted alif', ''{{transliteration|ar|ALA|alif maqṣūrah}}''), commonly known in Egypt as ''{{transliteration|ar|ALA|alif layyinah}}'' ({{lang|ar|ألف لينة}}, 'flexible alif'), may appear only at the end of a word. Although it looks different from a regular ''alif'', it represents the same sound {{IPA|/aː/}}, often realized as a short vowel. When it is written, ''{{transliteration|ar|ALA|alif maqṣūrah}}'' is indistinguishable from final [[Persian alphabet|Persian]] ''[[Yodh#Perso-Arabic ye|ye]]'' or Arabic ''{{transliteration|ar|ALA|yā’}}'' as it is written in Egypt, Sudan
The letter is transliterated as {{transliteration|ar|ALA|y}} in [[Kazakh language|Kazakh]], representing the vowel /[[Mid central vowel|ə]]/. ''{{transliteration|ar|ALA|Alif maqsurah}}'' is transliterated as {{transliteration|ar|ALA|á}} in [[ALA-LC Romanization|ALA-LC]], {{transliteration|ar|DIN|ā}} in [[DIN 31635]], {{transliteration|ar|ISO|à}} in ISO 233-2, and {{transliteration|ar|ISO|ỳ}} in [[ISO 233]].
