urdu to english translator program

I know that the majority of guppies are bilingual (or more) and have no problem switching from one language to another but there are some of us who are not fluent and, at times, find it difficult to understand some entries that has Urdu in it.

Keeping in mind that this site was created for Pakistanis and knowing the sense of pride in the Urdu language it is not with disrespect that I ask that an Urdu to English translator program be incorporated to the site. The guppy community extends far and wide and there are some who are not fluent in the language. It would increase the sites versatility and openess to the users.

Thank you very much…

While we do have a unicode-based urdu font someplace, but most people who write urdu words in their posts, use roman urdu i.e urdu words using english alphabets. In this case, there are no standardized specific spellings (its more phonetical) and many words may be slangs as well.

Are you aware of any urdu-english translator for roman urdu that is available on the net and can be added to GS?
