Agnostic Khorey, Pe Khair Raghley.

Seems our brothers have welcomed you very nicely (Shamaar, I didn't miss that comment). I look forward to your contributions and am hopeful you will not be disappointed here.

Thank you.

So far I have got 3 answers.

It means wind. It means a dragon. It means a snake.

[Shamaar]

Yup, شمله ور خراساني got it right. The literal meaning of Shamaar is king snake, but it generally means dragon. I just don't like the word Azhdaha.

You're the third person today that has told me I have left them confused

About the village (there was some sarcasm in my post, don't worry). Either way, I found it funny.

[AgnosticPashtana]

I don't get the village comment. Please explain.

Welcome!

Thanks. Khorasan? You do know that is concept forwarded by minorities to rename Afghanistan right?

I am a proud Khorasani. I wish to rename Afghanistans name into greater Khurasan. And no madame. I do not belong to any minority group. I am half Ahmadzai Pashtun and half Tajik. This makes me a representative of the absolute majority of Afghanistan.

You want the country to be renamed from Afghanistan which in a sense means the land of the Pashtuns to Khorasan which is a modern equivalent of what the Tajiks want? Do you also want the National anthem and poet to be changed into Dari? Rumi?

Interesting so far.

thats not true. Khurasan is not the land of Tajiks. Khurasan is the name of the region. It is not associated to any ethnicity. Its a neutral name.

Regardless of the fact that Tajik fascists claim the name for themselves, Khurasan remains the most neutral name for the region.

Plus, Afghanistan is likewise a Farsi name. Stan is farsi. If Afghanistan really was a Pashtun name, then it would have been called Afghankhwa. Not Afghanistan.


Btw: most Pashtuns today live in Pakistan. Current Pashtun population of Afghanistan does not exceed 8 million.

I think you need to look up what the modern word of Khorasan prevails and what purpose it serves. It does not serve in a fashion that you are attempting to make it guise. The term Khorasan serves as word that meets Tajik interests since they are against the name Afghanistan. I don't understand how you could want that. I am born in the U.S.A and I can't wish to see my country go from the land of Pashtuns to something that is deemed unacceptable by almost all Pashtuns.

My mom is also supposedly a Pashto speaking Tajik. That isn't the problem nor am I being racist. I just think if an Uzbek or Tajik want to advance their fascist ideas they can return to those countries that represent them better. What do I mean by that? Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. Please refrain from changing a country that means land of Pashtuns to that word.


You seem to be suffering from Tajik-led media. You are telling me Pashtun population in Afghanistan does not exceed 8 million? Define Pashtun for me.
