pronouncing the numbers, and applying the grammar according to the status of the digit last pronounced: 1563 would be ألف وخمسمائة وستون وثلاث كتب, if I understood him really well. It works. It is good Arabic.
That's not the way Amr, you're actually reading left to right, which is more western. The proper Arabic style (right to left) is not really "falling out of use", Media outlets like Aljazeera etc use it primarily, IIRC. Please can you guys contribute so we have a proper debate about this to put the issue at rest with a good form that works for every application. Djihed
