A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai
For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."
The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!
To make things more simplified and easy, state what you want to say in Pashto. That way after reading a bunch of sentences, you can figure out the similarities.

From the above sentences I got a simply idea of how to use the verb "to be" but what is the actual verb? Also, what is the actual verb "to have?"
I am just waiting for Feroza_Banu's syllabus, once that comes, I will ask a lot of questions, such as what are pre-positions post-positions used Pashtu. I am a very systematic learner.
If I could learn one verb a day, that would go a long way. Here there are three verbs you have used:
