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!

Asalammmmu alaikum Khor!!
Very nice to meet you and welcome to PF! I'm a native English speaker and doing Pashto self-study at the moment. InshaAllah I'll be in touch with you via a message!
Where are you living at the moment? Tell us how you stumbled across PF?

Janana,
I found PF by case, looking for some info about Pashto language.
I study Pashto at Warsaw University, Poland. We still struggle with lack of good teaching materials. So far I've learnt Pashto from Russian, German and English books. Russian ones are the best (grammar I mean).دلته دم او قدم دواړه په حساب دي - پل په لاره غلط مه ږده بې حسابه

Make sure you ask us any questions you might have. Also, be sure to check out our extensive Pashto section[including it's archives], and our very own library known as the Kitabtoon.Originally posted by Yasmeenaah View PostJanana,

Greetings,Originally posted by Yasmeenaah View PostAdmin Khan - I checked Kitaboon... and what if I'd like to suggest some articles there?
There is absolutely nothing preventing you from clicking the new thread button and sharing whatever you desire. So if you have something to share with us, do feel free. The aforementioned applies to all our sections, not just the Kitabtoon(Library). :-)Even Adobe Photoshop can't change me.
