Hi Urdu Linguistic Team 

The Hindi Linguistic Team is working on translating the content from English to Hindi which can be found here:

http://dotsub.com/translate/7281f5dc-d4b1-4315-abb7-143becd34f49/hin

But since the languages are so similar, I was thinking that maybe you could use the Hindi translation as reference to help with the translation work in Urdu by using the Google Translate and Transliterate tools.

For translating Hindi to Urdu use this link

The transliterate tool use this link

http://www.google.com/transliterate/

Rishi,
That's a good idea. I've been trying to keep the translation using as colloquial terms as possible ( commonly used words). I can't read hindi but I am sure its the same with hindi as well.

Even if you can’t read the Hindi (actually it is the Devanagari Script which is used by Marathi as well) the Google Tools should come in Handy and help convert the same information into Urdu. Not sure how it will work. You can try it out and let I can’t read Urdu although  many writing systems are used.

I have tried it, its very effective.
there is the same work syntax in Urdu and hindi.
Makes it very interchangeable.
That was a awesome find Rishi
