Hi, any Arabic speakers who can confirm that this is the correct translation:

الجوال (The Mobile)

Thanks in advance.

It's one of the versions, but not the most common. Still decent though.

Thanks, what would you consider to be the most common?

It really depends on WHERE in the Middle East you are. In some places, this word is quite common. There are numerous others...

الخلوي - "the cellular"
الموبايل- "the mobile"

These are just a couple!

Keep in mind you can have variations with or without the word "the", as well as variations with singular / plural.

48 M Google results suggests otherwise!
