    Pashto Language Manual published in Paris



    Pashto language teaching materials with a scientific approach are quite scarce. In these circumstances the “MANUEL DE PASHTO” published by Daniel Septfonds and Kabir Habib can be seen as a significant step in the history of this language.

    The 560 pages book is published by “L’Asiatheque – Langues du Monde” in Paris. The price is €49 in France.

    Mr. Daniel Septfonds is, among the living linguists, the one who has broad knowledge of modern linguistics, has a thirty six years long teaching experience in Pashto and masters, better than anyone else, Pashto Grammar. Kabir Habib also has been teaching Pashto language at Institut National des Langues et Civilisations Orientales in Paris.

    This manual covers all aspects of Pashto language through 30 lessons with easy reading texts and required tables. It can, not only, be used for self learning but it can also serve as valuable teaching tool in Pashto language classes and as a comprehensive guide for Pashto Grammar.

    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
