As a native speaker we say ظهر Like ضهر because it is heavy on mouth But we don't write it ظهر in chats If we are talking with popular Damascus accent, we just write the words as we pronounce it..so it is ضهر But in the original Arabic language, it is all wrong.

[@SpeakRealArabic]

As a native speaker, I often write it as ظهر in chats too. When it comes to dialects, there’s no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ way to spell words. Dialects are based on listening, so we rely more on our ears than on standardized writing. In contrast, Modern Standard Arabic is rooted in strict grammar rules, which is why replacing one letter with another is considered incorrect. But that's not the case with dialects. In fact, as you may know, many Arabs even use English letters to write Arabic in informal chats.
