الحرث

English translation: Al Hurrath

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Arabic term or phrase:الحرث
English translation:Al Hurrath
Entered by: Awad Balaish

Arabic to English translations [Non-PRO]
Social Sciences - Geography / Saudi Arabia
Arabic term or phrase: الحرث
محافظة الحُرَّث: هي المحافظة التي حدثت فيها الحالة التي يتحدث عنها هذا التقرير. وهي محافظة سعودية تقع على الحدود السعودية/اليمنية وتتبع لمنطقة جازان جنوب غرب السعودية
How is that name spelled in English؟ Though the tashkeel suggests that it is al-Hurrath, I also found it spelled al-Harth on some websites. Can someone who knows about Saudi Arabia help?

Hurrath


Explanation:
This seems to be the common usage as a Google search reveals.
In addition in this thesis (link below) it is also used as such.

I prefer dropping the 'Al' during translation e.g. Riyadh instead of Al-Riyadh
