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

Have a nice day! * Achha 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 bacha bana rahe ho!
No kidding!! * Koi bacha nahi bana raha!!
Don’t kid me! * Mera bacha mut banaao!
Yo, baby! What’s up? * Yo Beti, uppar kya hai?
Cool! * Thandaa!
Don’t mess with me, dude. * Mere saath gandagee mat karo, aik hastee.
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 choozaa mera hai,theek?
Hey good looking; what’s cooking? *Arree
sundarta ki devi; kyaa pakaa raheeho?
Are you nuts? * Kya aap akhrott hain?
Son of a gun. * Bacha Bandooq da!

How about Urdu to English:
Sadar mein goliyan chal rahin hain: *Tablets are walking in the president

Battee Jalao: *Burn the light

Mera sar chakar kha raha hain: *My head is eating circles!

Insaan Bano!: *Make Human

*Get Back to Where you Once Belonged! *
