I’ve got a phone with Urdu software in it, but the translations are really funny - Like ok is ho gaya and go to is ‘pohncho’ something is also translated as ‘chalo ho gaya’, I just can’t recall the English word for it. There must be good Urdu words for the basic features of a mobile phone, how would you translate these words? You’re welcome to add more.

CH, some words are not translated. They're agreed with operators etc. But I've seen 'Service' translated in Urdu to Khidmaat. Without the icon I wouldn't have guess what they meant.
Thap, does your cell tell you that? Ajeeb loag bithai hue haiN translation ke liye, tsk.
Chan, you guys need to stop joking about this stuff. I'm dead sure someone googled for these words in Urdu and used them as posted by someone on a joke site. Your translation is disturbingly close to what actually is in the phones. Speaking of Punjabi, do we have phones in Punjabi? They asked about it today, and I said no :o
