    hi and salaams

    hi and salaams:

    i've been reading your boards for a little while and find the language threads really helpful. a little about me:

    i'm 25, american (half-italian, half anglo) and i got interested in pakhto and pakhtoons this past year in india and pakistan (was studying).

    now i'm back in the u.s., trying to learn pakhto, but i don't know of any pakhto-speakers in my area. all i have is books.

    anyway, i hope to make some friends, get some questions answered (grammar, translation), and maybe even find some families in texas.

    nice to meet you all!

        Hi,

        Welcome aboard!
        Even Adobe Photoshop can't change me.

        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
