Has Apple ditched the enter key symbol in their mac devices international keyboard?
The return key in Apple's keyboard layout has two functions, the return key ↩; and the enter key ⌤ (which is produced by fn+return).
However, the new Macbooks has no ⌤ symbol engraved on keyboard! Does that means it's not supported anymore? I know it sounds silly but I use the return/enter combinations a lot in my apps?
Appreciate any answer because I want to upgrade and not sure if the enter key is not supported or just missed in keyboard?

That is what i've read in the documentation, but since the 2017/2018 models many changes happened to the keyboard layout like the printed Arabic commands above the dead keys (الهروب,الرجوع,التحكم,العالي, ...etc) that's an image to the exact model i'm thinking of buying [link] imgur.com/a/0NmI3In

Hrm, okay. Can't confirm 100%, but for a US keyboard set to the Arabic layout, I can confirm that return/enter functions as normal once the fn key is pressed. Link

Can't confirm 100% since I don't have a keyboard with an Arabic physical layout on hand, but for a US keyboard on a 2018 tMBP set to the Arabic layout, I can confirm that return/enter functions as normal once the fn key is pressed.
