RE: [pakgrid] Digital Circuits book in URDU-contribution to a national cause

"Es ist alles im Deutch"

The undergraduate Education in German universities is by and large in their native language—German (exceptions are some private universities). They publish scientific literature in German Language, and aggressively translate scientific literature (such as important Text Books etc.,) from English into German

I see almost websites of almost ALL the German universities are in German language. Some of them carry English language component as well. My questions are:

Do the natives study in English or German? In particular, the undergrads?

In Germany, is English language a compulsory subject at primary and secondary school levels?

Have theny abondoned publishing engineering and scientific literature in German?

It might seem harsh but even the countries who used to teach in their own language e.g. Germany is moving towards more and more English programmes. Whereas with this effort we are going in the opposite direction.

So therefore, translating English texts into Urdu is not the solution. It is the scientific approach that matters most and the emphasis should be done on primary and secondary level education to impart such approach.

PS: If you are translating texts then I am afraid you have to devise programming languages in URDU and their associated compilers as well.

Assalam o alaikum All,
Mr Khalid Khan of COMSATS institute of IT is doing a wonderful job of writing electrical engineering books in urdu. Digital circuits is the second book of his efforts. I have attached this book for the students who want to benefit from it.
