Currently when writing in right to left languages (Hebrew, Arabic etc.) the text is shown pretty poorly when the text includes English or punctuation marks.

See answer here: Right-to-Left tables


This is also important (and I think is even more critical) for forms, which looks extremely unprofessional and damages our presentation without RTL support. This is the only reason why we’re not paying Airtable at the moment.

Wow i can’t believe it hasn’t been done yet.

As a mini-developer i even know how much easy this job is (by Relativity of course).

Airtable has a lot of Right-To-Left lang users, and the fact that it isn’t been done yet - looks like a disrespectful approach to their clients.

Hi friends.

Here is a temporary solution:
Install the chrome stylish addon (free for one style - skip the payment option).

Then install the following style:

This is a browser-level temporary solution, until Airtable fix it on the core level.
It has to be installed on each needed browser seprately.

Come on. It’s an easy fix. Israelis are waiting for this (and looking for alternatives like monday in the meanwhile)

I need this too - for Arabic- and Persian-speaking immigrants and refugees to register for English classes.

I need this. All my Arab friends I invite to Airtable are saying no RTL, which makes it difficult.

Please support RTL, at least for some fields in Forms. When written in Arabic, the LTR style causes character damage, starting from the left.
