# 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.
