I have joined the Document Foundation with the username "urdulizer" to work
for the localization of LibreOffice in Urdu Language.
But I am surprised and disappointed to see that the name of the Fourth Most
Spoken language of the world is NOT included in the Languages List.
I request the administrators to kindly take steps to include Urdu in the
languages list.
Thank you so much.

Yes, you are right about Hindi and Urdu, as both occur "mostly" in the

I think you are getting my point that I do not want to go for a "second
or
third level" translation. I want to translate directly from the
root-level
language.
When using Pootle you can choose to have another language visible on the
page
with the text you are working on. So you can use both English and the Hindi
translation to make the translation to Urdu. You can either copy the
English
text or the Hindi text or even part of it.
My extra language, when translating from English to Dutch, is German.
