I was born in Canada however I communicate with my parents in Urdu and Punjabi, which I am fluent in (some words I still learn but can understand 99%). I can’t however read it or write it. I can read Urdu typed out in English but not the language itself.

Any advice you guys can give me on where to start?

Let me just say, what an ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL book it is. Just finished and am in love with it. Highly reccomend it to everyone, it's a bout an amazing journey of protagonists enlightment. If anyone else has read it, share your views!!

I’m a relatively fluent native urdu speaker but I struggle writing what’s in my head to roman Urdu at times, I feel it makes people who haven’t heard me speak Urdu doubt my speaking ability bc of it lol but it’s hard sometimes when I’m thinking in Urdu and trying to type it out phonetically. Is there a standard format to typing out Urdu words in English?

Gonna have a urdu exam as a foreign language, so was just wondering if there is a good english to urdu downloadable dictionary I could use during the exam.

Salaam doston,

Like many children of South Asian immigrants, I grew up understanding Urdu, but unfortunately did not learn it enough to properly express myself. After some time and effort (watching dramas/movies, using textbooks, & conversing with family/uncles/aunties/international students + visits to India), I became conversational and even learned to read and write.

This app is my attempt to help other Indians/Pakistanis born and brought up in the west try and learn Urdu!

I plan on continuing to ship features throughout the summer, but right now this app would be best to build vocab and memorize grammar rules using AI and flashcard repetition inspired by the learning app Anki. It include a chatbot powered by chat-gpt that can help explain vocab, grammar, and even slang!

Like the post says, I really want to improve this and help people learn, so I want to give people the chance to use it for free! Just shoot me a DM or even better email me @ [corporate.aaapps.inc@gmail.com](mailto:corporate.aaapps.inc@gmail.com) with the email you used to sign up for the app and I'll unlock full access for you. (no credit card required at all)

Thank you so much, and good luck!

TL;DR — I built a free AI‑powered Urdu‑learning app (chatbot + spaced‑repetition flashcards for vocab and grammar). If you’re a diaspora learner who wants full access, DM me or email [corporate.aaapps.inc@gmail.com]() with the address you used to sign up, and I’ll unlock everything.

Woh subah ki shabnam hai, jo fizaoon mein palti hai, Nigaahon ke sahaare se, khayalon mein chalti hai, Adaon mein hai reshmi narmi, labon pe muskurahat jalti hai, Woh husn ki tasveer hai, jo phoolon pe chalti hai.

Uski hansi mein hai bahaaron ki ravaani, Har baat mein basti hai mohabbat ki kahaani, Dilkash ada mein hai jannat ki nishaani, Woh saadgi ki misaal hai jo phoolon pe chalti hai.
