sheeda are recent arrivals in south asia like 300-400 years ago, but these people posted above were the first south asians, they have been in south asia for more then 50,000 years. i believe darker indians and even some pakistanis are related to them some what

I thin I once read that they were very early settlers from Africa? Is that truth?
Also on on of their Islands they speak a language thay nobody know anything about expect themselves.
This is interesting. I don't remember the name of the islands but I am pretty shure that on one islands nobody can understand them expect for those 500 people who live on the island.
Karachi, you are from Pakistan is that not truth? If so are you a Sindh or Punjabi? And how big a difference are there between Sindh, Punjabi and Pashtun language? I know all are Indo-European languages and that Urdu and Hindi are very similar.
How similar? Very much like Arabic dialects or less?
^ originally my family came from Delhi, my grandfather was a religious scholar he could speak Urdu, Dari/Farsi, Arabic etc... They settled in pakistan (Lahore) in 1946, just before the creation of pakistan. So i am neither punjabi or sindhi.
As for Sindhi, Punjabi, they are closer languages since they are indic, though sindhi has been influenced by balochi as well because many baloch tribes settled in Sindh
Pashto is of east iranic origin, it is quiet different from punjabi and sindhi, though through ancient language like Sanskrit, there are many similarities.
Hindi/Urdu are very close languages, however hindi uses heavy Sanskrit, while Urdu uses many Dari/Farsi words. Pure Urdu is like 30-40% Dari/Farsi, while pure Hindi is like 30-40% Sanskrit, but today both of these languages have become much closer because both of these languages are not spoken in the pure form anymore
