    In this unit, we will focus on expanding your Urdu vocabulary related to various professions. This will not only help you to describe your own profession in Urdu but also enable you to understand when others talk about their jobs.

    Let's start with some common professions and their Urdu equivalents:

    • Doctor: ڈاکٹر (Doctor)
    • Engineer: انجینئر (Engineer)
    • Teacher: استاد (Ustaad) or معلم (Muallim)
    • Lawyer: وکیل (Wakeel)
    • Nurse: نرس (Nurse)
    • Artist: آرٹسٹ (Artist) or فنکار (Fankaar)
    • Writer: مصنف (Musannif) or لکھاری (Likhari)
    • Businessman: کاروباری (Karobaari)
    • Farmer: کسان (Kisaan)
    • Chef: باورچی (Bawarchi)

    Now, let's use these words in sentences:

    • I am a doctor: میں ڈاکٹر ہوں (Main doctor hoon)
    • He is an engineer: وہ انجینئر ہے (Woh engineer hai)
    • She is a teacher: وہ استاد ہے (Woh ustaad hai)
    • My father is a businessman: میرے والد صاحب کاروباری ہیں (Mere walid sahab karobaari hain)
    • My mother is a nurse: میری ماں نرس ہیں (Meri maa nurse hain)

    Remember, the key to mastering a new language is practice. Try to use these words in your daily conversations. You can also practice by asking your friends or family about their professions in Urdu.

    In the next unit, we will learn about work-related conversations and how to discuss work schedules, job responsibilities, and work environment in Urdu. Stay tuned!
