This is a great step at preserving the language, and will help nurture the growth of Pashto.

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!

What a great news. Finally Pashto is getting recognized as a medium of communication. A great step and cultural victory for Pashtuns.Don't quote me or speak to me if you hate Afghanistan, you be ignored.
People with identity crisis will be ignored as well.

Some tajik nationalists and hazara's use to say Pashto will no longer exist in 50 years.
We are moving towards an age where language and communication is increasingly conducted via digital devices. Languages are preserved if they are used, spoken and written.
This is a great day for Pashto language and Pashtuns. People who wish to see our language and identity disappearing are having a bad day.Originally posted by FirdousiComment

Good work, Pasthuns missed the industrial revolution. Let's hope we don't miss the digital revolution.Comment

It's good to see Pashto on Google Translate however, as always, the translations aren't the most accurate. As a test, I wrote "I am going home now" (a phrase Google Translate often gets wrong even for more widely-spoken languages such as Spanish or Urdu) and the translation I got was "زه اوس کور ته ځي", with "ځي" instead of "ځم". It's still all good tho. Also, there should be a transliteration for people who can't read the Pashto script.Comment
