A comparative study of the transliteration of the types of "Waw" in the translations of the Qur'an by Elahi Qamsha-e, Fulladvand, and Reza'i

For each letter in the source language, there are several equivalents in the target language with different roles and translations. Therefore, choosing an equivalent for that letter and the role that letter plays, among the types of roles that come to the reader's mind, is one of the problems in the field of translation. It has a special position that distinguishes it from other letters because it contains different types that are very similar to each other so sometimes they are confused in terms of role due to this similarity, and each gives different meanings to the sentence. Therefore, the types of "wow" in the Arabic language and its uses in the Holy Qur'an have been examined and adapted in the translations of Fuladvand, Elahi Qomsheai, and Rezaei. The obtained results show that Fouladvand has acted correctly in comparing "Waw atfe", "Waw maeyat", and "Waw qasm". Elahi Qomsha'i has done the right thing in comparing "Waw haliyeh", "Waw thamaniyeh" and "Waw qasam". And Rezaei had a correct performance in the comparison of "Wow estenafiyeh", "Waw thamaniyeh" and "Waw qasam".  In general, the translation of Foladvand is more accurate when comparing the types of "Waw".
