# Punjabi Translator Internship at CryptoMize A Punjabi translator at CryptoMize converts written material between Punjabi and English — and, distinctively, between the language's two scripts — for engagements across Delhi, the Punjab belt, and diaspora readerships inside the 18-country footprint. Gurmukhi runs left to right, Shahmukh the other way in the Perso-Arabic tradition; the translator who moves a sentence honestly between them is a rare instrument in any market. Apply now for the Punjabi Translator Internship in Delhi at CryptoMize — a six-month certified program, rolling intake, for candidates with strong Punjabi and English who want the full two-script discipline few translators ever acquire. Interns translate real material from Month 1: campaign and community documents between Punjabi and English, and — the desk's speciality — script conversion work moving text between Gurmukhi and Shahmukh for audiences on opposite sides of one border. A senior translator marks every segment. Freshers with strong bilingual reading are the audience; eligibility and selection follow in full. ## Facts - Location: New Delhi (HQ), CDR Building, Chhatarpur - Type: 6-month internship, certification provided - Availability: immediate, rolling intake (always hiring) - Compensation: discussed at screening ## What you will actually do - Translate engagement documents between Punjabi and English — campaign material, community notices, correspondence — segment by segment under senior markup - Learn script conversion as a craft: rendering Gurmukhi text into Shahmukh and back, where vowel conventions differ and the page marks none of the tones - Hold the shared standard — Majhi-based published Punjabi — while flagging dialect-flavoured source text that needs a ruling rather than a silent smoothing - Build the dual-script termbase: political, community, and administrative vocabulary held to one rendering per script - Localize campaign and community material so it reads native in either script, flagging what cannot cross honestly - Run QA passes on engine-assisted segments — script confusion and dropped conjuncts are the failure modes to catch - Maintain a conversion-error log with your mentor: every vowel-convention trap you met, and the ruling that resolved it ## Skills - Strong Punjabi reading and writing in Gurmukhi - Working Shahmukh literacy (trained to depth if new) - English drafting at professional standard - Script-conversion craft across vowel conventions - Tonal awareness applied to ambiguity resolution - Standard-versus-dialect judgement in source text - Termbase discipline across two scripts - Translation accuracy with documented self-review - QA-pass method for engine-assisted output - Localization instinct with honest flagging - Parallel-queue deadline reliability - Discretion with engagement documents ## Tools - CAT tooling of the Phrase class with dual-script termbase - Shared glossary platform with per-script rulings - Script-conversion reference charts kept at the desk - Punjabi corpus references in both scripts ## Questions and answers ### What does a Punjabi Translator intern do at CryptoMize? You translate engagement documents between Punjabi and English and train on the desk's speciality — converting text between the Gurmukhi and Shahmukh scripts — with senior markup on every segment. ### What is the eligibility for the Punjabi Translator Internship? Strong Gurmukhi Punjabi and English; Shahmukh literacy is an advantage the program trains to depth. Freshers apply — the screening translation in both directions decides. ### What does a Punjabi converter do on this desk? Conversion here means script conversion: the same Punjabi language moved between Gurmukhi and Shahmukh for readers on opposite sides of the border — vowel conventions adjusted, ambiguities checked against the ear, never transliterated blindly. ### Why does script matter if the spoken language is shared? Because the page is where audiences live: an Indian reader's Gurmukhi and a Pakistani reader's Shahmukh are one language in two costumes, and material that ignores the costume never gets read. ### Are there Punjabi language jobs for freshers after this program? Yes — the two-script bench hires from its intern cohort first. Six months, certification, a portfolio across three work classes, and conversion conversations for the strongest. ### What is the selection process? A short application, a two-direction translation exercise plus a short conversion attempt, and an interview with the desk lead. Most cycles close inside two weeks. ### Is the internship paid? Compensation is discussed during screening and set against demonstrated skill, engagement classification, urgency, and track record. Figures are never published. ### How long is the program, and is a certificate provided? Six months at our New Delhi HQ, certificate on completion — plus the reviewed two-script portfolio, which is the credential this niche actually hires on.
