Hey Paridhi! Welcome to Apertium. Bernard already outlined how you could help out, but I would like to note that we are more enthusiastic about translation between languages that are underresourced and/or closer to each other grammatically. Are there any other Indo-Aryan languages you know along with Hindustani? Or perhaps Dravidian?
