Need someone to do some Urdu transcription/translation

Hangout GupShup Cafe

I am looking for someone who can transcribe and translate occasional Urdu audio clips.

To see sort of stuff I’d need done and see how long it would take you to do it, take a look at this BBC clip about Sethi House: ?BBC Urdu? - ??? ??? - ??? ??? ??? ?? ?? ??? ?? ??? ?](سیٹھی ہاوسز، ثقافت کے بچ جانے کی امید - BBC News اردو)

The transcriptions and translations would need to be done in Word. I would need pretty quick turnaround, so if your life is busy, let someone else who is not so busy and who wants to do an efficient and competent job do it.

Send me a private message and let me know how much you think is a fair recompense for your time. I can pay via paypal, but I don’t know if that works to Pakistan…

Thanks!

Beautiful clip.

Good luck finding somebody for help with this.

I was curious how you would judge the quality of the transcription and what rules, standards you expect.
Also, what is this for ?

The transcription must be exact -- so for instance, in this clip, the workman says* tin* (3 in Punjabi) rather than* teen* as properly pronounced in Urdu. Translation I can clean up/sort out, if need be (as a native English speaker with an English professor mama, I'm not too shabby at that...)

It's for creating Urdu lessons.
