print(get_alphabets_codes())

>>> ['ma', 'ar', 'la', 'ab', 'gr']

Get all alphabets

from aaransia import get_alphabets

print(get_alphabets())

>>> {   
>>>     'ab': 'Abjadi Alphabet',

ARABIC_SENTENCE = "كتب بلعربيا هنايا شحال ما بغيتي"

print(transliterate(ARABIC_SENTENCE, source='ar', target='ma'))

>>> ktb bl3rbya hnaya ch7al ma bghiti

Transliterate cross languages and dialects to another, using the universal parameter

MOROCCAN_ARABIC_SENTENCE = "ktb بلعربيا hnaya شحال ما بغيتي"

print(transliterate(MOROCCAN_ARABIC_SENTENCE, source='ar', target='ma', universal=True))
print(transliterate(MOROCCAN_ARABIC_SENTENCE, source='ma', target='ar', universal=True))

>>> ktb bl3rbya hnaya chhal ma bghyty
>>> كتب بلعربيا هنايا شحال ما بغيتي

Transliterate from all languages to all languages

from aaransia import transliterate, SourceLanguageError

MOROCCAN_SENTENCE = "ktb bl3rbya hnaya ch7al ma bghiti"
ARABIC_SENTENCE = "كتب بلعربيا هنايا شحال ما بغيتي"
ENGLISH_SENTENCE = "ktb bl'rbya hnaya chhal ma bghiti"
GREEK_SENTENCE = "κτμπ μπλ'ρμπυα χναυα σχχαλ μα μπγχιτι"

SENTENCES = [MOROCCAN_SENTENCE, ARABIC_SENTENCE, ENGLISH_SENTENCE, GREEK_SENTENCE]

ALPHABETS = get_alphabets_codes()

for i in range(len(SENTENCES)):
    try:
        for target_language in ALPHABETS:
            print(f'{SENTENCES[i]}\n'
                  f'{ALPHABETS[i]} ==> {target_language}\n'
                  f'{transliterate(SENTENCES[i], ALPHABETS[i], target_language)}\n')
    except SourceLanguageError as sle:
        print(SENTENCES[i], sle)

2. Generate the whole alphabet with the construct_alphabet function from utils.py
3. Update the defaults.py
   1. Add the alphabet code
   2. Add the alphabet name
   3. Add both of them to the alphabet dictionary

4. Test a text with the language just added against all other languages in test.py
   1. Add a language text to test in text_samples
   2. Add test handling for the new language
