# Urdu translation style guide(انداذِ ترجمہ کا رہنما)
|
||
|
||
Use semi-formal Urdu for translation:
|
||
|
||
- Formal "you" (_آپ_) instead of informal form _تم_. Many top software
|
||
companies (e.g. Google, Facebook, Microsoft) use the formal one, because it's typically
|
||
considered rude to use the informal one without an established acquaintance with someone.
|
||
|
||
- Imperative, active, and continuous verbs, e.g. _manage streams_ -
|
||
_سٹریمس کی رہنمائ کریں_, not _سٹریمس کی رہنمائ_.
|
||
|
||
- Warm and friendly phrasing whenever appropriate.
|
||
|
||
- No slang or regional phrases that could be unclear or too informal.
|
||
|
||
- Balance common verbs and nouns with specific IT-related translations
|
||
of English terms - this can be tricky, try to check how other
|
||
resources were translated (e.g. Gmail, Microsoft websites, Facebook)
|
||
to decide what wouldn't sound awkward/rude in Urdu.
|
||
|
||
Some terms are very tricky to translate, so be sure to communicate
|
||
with other Urdu speakers in the community. It's all about making
|
||
Zulip friendly and usable.
|
||
|
||
