Hi @walterbender !

I’ve added Urdu translation support to MusicBlocks in Sugar Labs. This contribution is particularly meaningful because it will help children in Pakistan and other Urdu-speaking regions to use MusicBlocks in their native language. Many kids in Pakistan already enjoy using MusicBlocks to learn and create music, and this translation will make the tool more accessible and engaging for them.

By adding Urdu support, we can empower more children to explore creativity, learn coding concepts, and express themselves through music. This aligns with Sugar Labs' mission to provide accessible and inclusive educational tools for learners worldwide.

I’ve included a short demo video to showcase the Urdu translation in action:

I’ve carefully reviewed the translations to ensure they are accurate and culturally appropriate. I hope this addition will be valuable to the community and encourage more Urdu-speaking users to benefit from MusicBlocks.

Thank you for considering this pull request! I’m happy to make any adjustments if needed.

Best regards,
AliyanA1

This is great. Thanks.
It would be good to translate as many of the block and palette names as possible. The help and notification strings can come in over time.

The only thing to keep in mind is that we want to keep the language simple and clear.
