[tor_khan]

what is the Pashto word for disobedient.

Copied/Pasted for you (source: Raverty):

عاق کول - œāḳḳ kawul - to rebel, to manifest disobedience.

^ new to me

Alternative (Source: Qamasoona):

نافرمانى کول - nafarmaani - to disobey

^ makes sense, even though I don't really use it.

I understand farmaan - to make an order, so nafarmaani - to go against. Seems logical.

[IamDZJ]

^can i have the link to qamosoona?? i reformatted my computer and lost the link.

[Yousafzai Pakhtun]

Aaq kawel is more like disowning someone. It is very rarely used to describe disobedience. I would use the latter suggestion in your post. What is your alternative?

[tor_khan]

I just copied/pasted the first example from Raverty. Like I say, I would not have used aaq kawal as "disobedience", so I added the note. So much for Victorian era Englishmen trying to write Pakhto dictionaries, I guess ...

My alternative? *Mahzala* - when the kids have tried to get away with things, I just tilt my head and stare. Instant fix. "Yow zal me owey". I don't get into arguments with children.

Arguments with children are not pretty ... I know. But 'yaw zal me wowayle/ze khpela khabere ne tekraarawoma doesn't fit everywhere right? Disobedience, out of the box of children, was what I was referring to. For instance, if you were to say, or translate an ayah from the Quran in which disobedience is mentioned, how would you put it? De Khuday na farmaani kawel? Or do you have an alternative?

[Michin Khel]

Daa ta' sanga marwat ye marha?????

Maa sara che kom Marwat malgaree dee haghvee kho warta zamoong ghondey "uss" wayee....Aspa ye female dapara istemaalawoo....

We use "uss" for male and "aspa" for female. My mistake that i did'nt mention words for both genders.
Between i dont know what is english word for female horse.

[Michin Khel]

For hairs word " weshtan" or "wekhtan" is used. In our area boys keep long hairs over neck and ears, we call it "balache". Do you people have heard of this word?
