Would you be interested in working on a pair with Hindi and a language that
is more or less intelligible to a Hindi speaker? (E.g. Punjabi, Gujarati)
You could also work on other Indian languages even if you don't know them
fluently, e.g. Marathi->Hindi
India has a lot of underresourced and structurally similar languages so I
am sure we could come up with a good pair for you to work on.
