Localisation for Romanised Urdu

[kpjfairns]

🤔 What's the problem you're trying to solve?

Due to the standard of EN/EU keyboards not having the necessary characters to correctly type in scripts that are not latin character based, there is a population that writes in Romanised versions of the languages that are currently supported in their native scripts, one such being Urdu.

Adding these will allow for better transliteration of business needs within communities of developers (or even for language students, should cucumber be used that way) that have a need for a Romanised script of the languages in question (second generation Urdu speakers, who have grown up in an environment that caters towards Latin scripts, in this instance)

✨ What's your proposed solution?

Introduce ur-latn as a hybrid localisation:

English Keyword	Romanised Urdu Keyword
Ability	Salahiyat
Feature	Wazeh
Business Need	Karobari Zarurat
Background	Pas Manzar
Scenario Template	Manzar Nama Template
Scenario Outline	Manzar Nama Khaka
Given	Diya Gaya
When	Jab
Then	Phir
And	Aur
But	Magar
Scenarios	Manzar Namaat
Examples	Misaalein/Maslan
Rule	Qaid

These transliterations should maintain the original Urdu meanings while using Latin characters for ease of use when it comes to EN/EU keyboards

⛏ Have you considered any alternatives or workarounds?

There currently is no support for this version of Urdu, hence the suggestion of the keywords needed

📚 Any additional context?

Hi! Thanks for opening this issue. Explanation on how to add a new localization can be found in the gherkin repo; https://github.com/cucumber/gherkin/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md

The docs regularly update the localization based on that repository as well.

@kpjfairns this sounds reasonable. Please feel free to provide a pull request.

@kpjfairns, would you be able to provide a translation for a single 'Scenario' and single 'Example'? Looks like everything else is there.

The present "Urdu" dialect is also missing a Rule translation if an appropriate value is something you could advise on?
