Ms. Marvel Episode 1 provided a great introduction to Kamala Khan and her family, but it provided an excellent platform for fans to learn more about the Urdu language.
We explain more about Urdu, reveal what some of the terms in the show say, and provide an episode guide to the series.
Ms. Marvel will follow Iman Vellanis Kamala Khan as her new abilities awaken to transform her into Ms. Marvel. The series will feature six episodes, and the character will also appear in the upcoming The Marvels film led by Brie Larsons Carol Danvers, and Captain Marvel.
Urdu explained
Urdu is described as an Indo-Aryan language, and it is also known as the national language of Pakistan, which is spoken throughout South Asia.
Urdu and Hindi have similar Sanskrit and Prakrit vocabulary as part of the Hindustani language.
Urdu became a literary word during the 18th century and is the 21st-largest language spoken in the world as of 2021.
#MsMarvel is a huge success for me as a Pakistani Muslim kid who loves marvel. I really like the representation and the small remarks in Urdu and how they depict Pakistani culture very accurately. Iman did an amazing job and I''m really excited to see what''s next pic.twitter.com/3tNZE6ZuRU
Urdu words used in Ms. Marvel
During Ms. Marvel''s first episode, Kamala and her family could hear several Urdu words, including plenty from Muneeba''s mother.
Several of the most popular brands are highlighted and explained in this video.
When Muneeba discusses Avengerscon, Haram in Urdu refers to something that is forbidden by Islamic Law.
Beta in Urdu originally means son, but it is also used as a term of endearment.
During Kamala''s driving test, the term bismillah is merely a adjuration or exclamation and is often used when saying In the name of Allah.
Gora, a white person''s Urdu term used by Maneeba, is also referred to in Urdu. However, some people consider this notion offensive.
Secondly, chalo in Urdu means to come or move in one direction.
Ms.Marvel was interested in seeing Kamala''s gora friend pronounce Pakistan correctly. It is truly a rare occurrence from my own experience in the United States.#msmarvel #Marvel #DisneyPlus #KamalaKhan
