    Tim Speaks Pashto/ټیم په پښتو خبری کوی - YouTube

    Really interesting!
    Even Adobe Photoshop can't change me.

    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!

    -Ferishta, 1560–1620

      It is possible. In fact everything he said was simple, most of sentences in present tense (only few sentences in so called potential form). Verbs in past tenses make Pashto difficult.
      If you learn Pashto from any texbook every day and you are "immersed" in Pashto sounds (radio, tv) you will see the results.

      He didn't mention if he had known Farsi or Arabic before Pashto. These languages makes Pashto learning easier.

        Amazing,as long as it is not used to fight the afghan people.
        High achievement always takes place in the framework of high expectation.
