All 24 lessons of Beginner WordPress User are now translated into Urdu (
ur) and ready for review.24 lessons, 802 translated rows, 212 of them quiz rows. Every document is open to comment, so a reviewer can work straight in the Google Doc.
11 of the 24 lessons carry no quiz in the source material. Those documents say so explicitly rather than showing an empty section.
Approach
Terminology was fixed before any translating started. A 27 term glossary covering block, theme, plugin, dashboard, permalink and the rest was agreed up front and applied identically across all 24 lessons, so the same English term never appears as two different Urdu words. The glossary sits at the top of every document.
Brand, product and plugin names stay in English. That includes WordPress, Jetpack, Akismet and block names such as Heading and Quote. These appear in English in the admin screens, so translating them would leave a learner unable to find the control being described. All URLs are unchanged, byte for byte.
SEO is rendered as ایس ای او, with سرچ انجن آپٹیمائزیشن given on first use in each lesson. The register is politely informal throughout, matching the conversational tone of the English transcripts, and the text is translated for sense rather than word for word so that it reads naturally in Urdu.
Two things I would like a maintainer to look at
Review
No reviewer is assigned yet. I would be grateful if the Urdu GTE or someone from the Training team could review, or point me to the right person. I will make any changes that come out of review.
Thumbnails are not done yet. I would rather settle the Urdu wording with a reviewer first, then generate all 24 in one pass.
A .docx and Markdown copy of everything is in #3616 for anyone who prefers to comment inline on GitHub.
