The paper presents a strategy for deriving English to Urdu translation using English to Hindi MT system. The English-Hindi lexical database is used to collect all possible Hindi words and phrases. These are further aug-mented by including their morphological vari-ations and attaching all possible post-positions. This list is used to provide mapping from Hindi to Urdu. There may be change in gender and a word or a word group may be of multiple parts of speech. These are resolved using information available from English-Hindi MT. As Urdu is structurally very close to Hindi using similar post-positions, the out-put obtained is as acceptable as the Hindi translation. 1
