How come there is another sound in between the two words? It sounds to me like Rawad un Sayeed

You're right. What you hear is "rawaadun" - the name (rawaad) with an ending (un). The ending -un (optional in writing, represented as double damma, i.e. two short u's) is a feature of Standard Arabic and usually denotes Nominative Case (Subject Case) of indefinite nouns. It also appears with (some) proper nouns. The problem hasn't been mentioned in the grammar section so far but the -un can be regularly heard in the recordings.
Note: روَاد لا توجد شدة على الواو Rawad not Rawwad روَاد✔ روَّاد❌
But that not important because it's just a name of person
Somebody please tell me which arabic keyboard should I add in gboad Arabic:Gulf, Egypt, Algeria and so on. Which is the standard arabic keyboard? Please help me.
That would be " هذا/إنّه رواد سعيد " (that is a happy Rawad )
However, with just these two words, it's always "Rawad is happy"
Naturally In Arabic, it simply doesn't mean what you suggest if the two words are found alone.
And where is verb to be there? What I read literally is " A Rawad happy"

That's actually wrong, Hsn626796. The prompt can mean both "A happy Rawad" and "Rawad is happy." "That is a happy Rawad" is a different sentence.
Either they expect you to just not use proper nouns like that...or they just haven't accounted for alternate but technically correct answers (because it's still in beta)
