Hi Lycanthrope316,

In arabic:

Mother is Umm and is written أم that is Alif with the hamza and then meem.

Father is Ab and is written أب and that is the Alif with Hamza and the Baa.

"My mother" would be Ummi and that is written أمّي and the letters used are the Alif with Hamza, the meem with shaddah and the you (the one on the keyboard with 2 dots beneath it).

"My Father" would be أبي Abi and the letters used are Alif with the Hamza, baa and you (the one on the keyboard with 2 dots beneath it).

Also, I will just add Mother and father is formal, so to speak. If you just want to say Mom it is Momma and Dad is said Baba.

Hope it helps
