Yes, that solves my problem, Will, and removing the
second \newfont{instan|fa}ce solves the original
problem, I think :
\documentclass[12pt,letterpaper]{report}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\newfontface\dhivehifontA{Mv Elaaf Normal}
\newcommand{\dhiA}[1]{{\dhivehifontA #1}}
\begin{document}
\dhiA{ޓީވީއެމް އާއި ދިވެހިރާއްޖޭގެ އަޑުގެ ނަން ބަދަލުކޮށްފިއެވެ.}

Yes, this works. Thank you!
My depth in LaTeX is about zero, so I generally work with cookie-cutter
solutions. Now that I understand how it works, I think my confusion
came about because the in-line example of using \newcommand in this
context occurs on pg 8 and uses \notefont, while the example of how to
define \notefont has floated on to pg 9. (This in v2.0c of the fontspec
documentation.) That, and it was late at night.
Andy Lin pointed out that I should be using the bidi package. I had
removed that for purposes of creating a minimal example.
At any rate, thank you all for the help!
