Subject: What is a Reverse Ajami?

Imaja?

I was just considering a practice where Arabic language is written in
Ethiopic script and referred to as "Ajam", but realized that it is was
the reverse that was happening here.

Is there a well recognized term applied to the practice of writing
Arabic language in non-Arabic script?

thanks!

/Daniel
