How it is calculated
Each letter becomes its key: ABC = 2, DEF = 3, GHI = 4, JKL = 5, MNO = 6, PQRS = 7, TUV = 8, WXYZ = 9; digits and symbols stay as they are.

Limits and caveats
- Arabic letters are not supported because their key layout differs between devices and has no single standard.
- Long vanity numbers may only dial their first digits, so check the number length in your country.
