Re: “Roman Urdu” typing
If you are trying to get a message across, then singing classical music in front of an audience which cannot appreciate it would be of no use. Hence the use of parables by learned people who want to reach out to masses with their messages. Imagine Neil De Grasse Tyson discussing mathematical equations to describe Jupiter’s orbit around sun. Although factually and scientifically correct, but very few people would be able to understand.
If, on the other hand, you are trying to promote proper use of roman alphabets to write Urdu without consideration of whether readers would like to read it or not, then it is fine.
Again, it is my personal opinion and that’s why I asked in this thread if the problem is with only me being unable to easily read sTufF wRit’Ten lIke tHiS.
well, a classical singer can NOT sing an ITEM song lolz.
i can’t write any other way because i’m used to it. i follow a certain 'transliteration scheme which i tried to introduce on GS 5 years ago but unfortunately got only a very few responses from Guppies and Guppans. here is the link to that thread:
http://www.paklinks.com/gs/culture-literature-and-linguistics/373332-roman-urdu-transliteration-scheme-how-to-write-effectively.html
if you go to any Urdu site of repute where roman Urdu is used, you’ll find that most people there use similar transliteration scheme.
thank you for your input.
