    Hello! I have a confession...

    Salaam alaikum, jor yaast, tol sturie mah shay.

    My name is Deiwa, at least, that is my Pashtun name. My confession is that I am not ethnically a Pashtun, but I am studying the language, culture and history. When I found this place, I was excited. It is very difficult to learn a language at a quick pace without having constant exposure to it, and I would love if I could be accepted here and be able to learn from you all.

        I don't think my ethnicity is important... it doesn't even feel like me. I live in America, anyway. :P
        yeah, maybe I am a "pashtun wannabe" ... :P

            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!

                          @Daiwa:

                          I suggest you focus on learning the pashto pronunciation first, especially the alphabet "Kha". You will be very embarrassed if you ever said Khona (room) with your American accent in front of your Afghan friends.

                          As we Pashtoon say; tie this advice to the corner of your scarf...or whatever you wear.
