Haven’t you always wondered how “Americanisms” would sound like if they were translated literally to an average urdu or hindi on, say, the streets of New Delhi or Karachi or Islamabad (or elsewhere)?

Have a nice day! * Achcha din lo!
How’s it going? * Kaisa jaa raha hai?
No way, Jose!! * Koi raasta nahee, Jose!!
What’s up? * Uppar kya hai?
You’re kidding! * Tum bachcha bana rahe ho!
No kidding!! * Koi bachcha nahi bana raha!!
Don’t kid me! * Mera bachcha mut banaao!
Yo, baby! What’s up? * Beti Yo, uppar kya hai?
Cool! * Thandaa!
Don’t mess with me, dude. * Mere saath gandagee mat karo, ek hustee.
Check this out, man! * Iskee chaanbeen karo, aadmi!
She’s so fine! * Woh itnee bedaag hai!
Listen buddy, that chick’s mine, okay!?
* Suno dost,woh choosaa mera hai,theek?

Hey good looking; what’s cooking?
*Array Khubsurat; kyaa pak raha hay?

Are you nuts? * Kya aap akhrote hain?

Hi Kids, .....Really enjoyed your chat and that reminds me a piece of Urdu poetry by Anwar Masood:

Kabhi phir guftagu ho gi keh ye saughat e afrangi
Hamaishah aadmi ki zehniyat kaisi banati hai

Abhi itna kahai daita hoo(n) angraizi ke baray mein
Kuchh aisi dheet hai kumbakh't aati hai na jaati hai
