lol, comeon man... that's just an Urdu transliteration of the English word.
‘Say: If the ocean were ink wherewith to write out the words of my Lord, sooner would the ocean be exhausted, even if We added another ocean like it.’~Al Qu'raan (18:109)
Yeah I know but I've learnt that most words in urdu are transliteration of English, Trust me...
No, I don't think that's the case. If we substitute for English in speech it's becaue the noun is a 'new thing' or because we can't think of the proper Urdu word, which will more often than not be of Arabic or Persian origin.

Nah, don't worry bro. I'm being a bit pedantic. Nowadays, as you said a lot of Urdu is being transliterated from English. You'll be fine inshAllah. And just ask zAk if you need any help. He's our resident Urdu expert.

Private Message zAk with it when you're done. Don't post it in the general forum.
