Motivation[edit]

Urdu Lughat is a dictionary maintained and published online by the Urdu Dictionary Board, an operation of the Pakistani government. It is intended to be an authoritative resource for the Urdu lexicon, with pronunciation audios, Urdu glosses, significant attestations/examples, and etymologies. Particularly useful are details like "pronunciation spelling" head words which can distinguish near homographs in the writing system. Many other databases and dictionaries pull information from this dictionary in some way. This would be very useful for linking to lexemes in Hindustani (Q11051) (Hindustani being the single name for the language that is Hindi and Urdu.)
