For right-to-left languages in translations, we have changed the orientation of lyrics and translations. What do you think about this innovation, did it become more convenient?
Right-to-left languages in translations
For me, it looks great and amazing now!
I've been reviewing all RTL language available on LT and these languages are working properly:
1) Arabic Script:
- Arabic
- Arabic (Other Varieties)
- Dari
- Kurdish (Sorani)
- Pashto
- Persian
- Urdu
- Uyghur
2) Aramaic (Syriac) Script:
- Aramaic (Modern Syriac Dialects)
- Aramaic (Syriac Classical)
3) Hebrew Script:
- Hebrew.
- Ladino (Judeo-Spanish)
- Yiddish
4) Thaana Script:
- Maldivian (Dhivehi)
But I'll let our native speakers gives us feedback on them.

EDIT: List updated. (Added Arabic (Other Varieties), Pashto, Urdu and Uyghur [For Arabic script]; Ladino (Judeo-Spanish) and Yiddish [For Hebrew script].
EDIT 2: List updated. Added Dari [For Arabic script]. K̶̶u̶̶r̶̶d̶̶i̶̶s̶̶h̶̶ ̶̶(̶̶K̶̶u̶̶r̶̶m̶̶a̶̶n̶̶j̶̶i̶̶) returns to LTR.
With regards to Arabic, I can confirm, the orientation changes are a good improvement. But as noted by [@Enjovher], the same changes need to be applied to Arabic (Other Varieties). Nicely done.
Helps really nicely for Urdu. Easier to read in Urdu now. Shukriyah! Thanks!
Works great for most languages, but Kurmanji Kurdish is mainly written in a Latin-script alphabet (most Kurmanji speakers live in Turkey and use the Hawar alphabet), so it should be LTR.
Also, transliterations of RTL languages should appear in LTR orientation.
Some titles (with English text, for example) look a bit funny now:

Yeah that happened with mine too. And because I am still very new here I thought that I was the one who had messed up. After I asked a veteran on this website they told me that they didn't see anything wrong but the title looked "long". I had also not heard about this " update " until now ha ha
For the languages Persian/Dari, Arabic, Urdu,... if it's possible, please add this feature in other places? like: comments, annotations, messages....
