Sustel;
That would be ok, except i am trying to translate a song from urdu to
tlhlngan Hol and that is in the song. "can you answer my question or you could say, i
have a question, because that is the way this language works. some things
mean the same, depending on the context. they don't use vowels in the adult
version of the language. this is only used when teaching children, so it can be a
bit dificult at times. It is a very complex language as far as languages go. it
is also a very old language, with very old words. ok most songs in urdu are
from very old poems and i mean old! like 100's of years old. nowadays even
people from pakistan and surrounding areas that use the language don't even know
how to speak it properly. i am translating a "gazal", which is from the old
style language and poems. maybe someone on this list might be from the area and
can explain it better than i can.
