What's new

The official Pushto learning thread

But I have seen those phones from Orange or Vodafone being used in Pakistan.
 
Yes you can use them once they are unlocked. This vodafone,orange etc are network companies same as mobilink,ufone etc. They are nt mobile makers, its just they offer you the contracts.


Btw in which phone you are interested?
 
How much is it over there?

Here it will be about 450-500 but the problem with it is that they cant be unlocked yet, they can only be used by the sim with which it come.
 
Why not try blackberry? I dont think so an iphone4 from uk will work anywhere else! Or if you can confirm if someone overthere can unlock it?
 
About 30 odd pounds

The pros of contract are

You dont need to pay all at once
You get free minutes/ mesaages/internet every month. This in normal case will be too costly to call.
 
Instead of talking about private stuff all the time why don't you guys occasionly teach some pashto.

What are the basics of the language? Some basic vocabulary. How to ask for other guys name,age etc.
 
abdullah i did tell quick single this a while back page 3 ish

but by all means what do you want to know and ill tell you now...since im online :P and people actually want to know something as opposed to caling me a racist and whatver else :P
 
I think sta(taso) num de means 'what is your name?'

PP------does da juwand me watan da para translate into 'this life of mine, is for my nation'.
 
Hi,
Obviously I don't want to have a masters degree in pashtoo. Some basic chit-chat phrase would be perfect like:

How have you been?
What's up?
Long time no see?
And typical responses to these question.

Also how do you say:
''Khan-ji do teen naan laga do" -- Mr Khan please make two three naan.

So these are 1-10 in pashto:
Yao
Duwa
Dreya
Saloor
Pinzuh
Shpag
Wuh
Atta
Nawo
Lus

NJamal bhai, what does 'mana' mean?

My Pathan friend back in Pakistan used to use this word a lot, like o mana meri baat tou suno...mana me tou kehta hoon etc
 
^ That is not mana it is actually mara. It is just a slang like you say Abbay in urdu or Oye
 
Bold parts.

Thank you.
Have to learn them, hopefully the pronunciation isn't that bad.

Da Afghan pa nang me wa tarala tura

Za Khushal toora pa laas, kafan pa ghara ba rapasam..
Ka me wawredal che pukhtoon da cha ghulam sho…
 
I like the poetry of Ghani Khan. He was a brilliant poet of Pashto.

Na Khabara da khpal zan Aw da Jahan u,

Da prado na Giley Hase kao “MALGRO”
Mung da Khpal “ULAS” Pakhpala Qatelan u.
