Mini-Course: How To Speak Pashto - Lesson 3 "This is"

In this lesson of our Pashto mini-course, we focus on one of the most important and beginner-friendly grammar rules in Pashto: using “Da … de” to say “This is …”. Mastering this structure is a key milestone in How to speak Pashto , because it allows you to describe objects, places, and people from day one. In English, we say, “This is a house.” In Urdu, the equivalent is “Yeh ghar hai.” In Pashto, the same idea is expressed as “Da kor de.” Here, “Da” means this, “kor” means house, and “de” (pronounced like day but with a soft 'D' as in fa th er) works like is. This sentence structure is extremely common in everyday Pashto conversations and forms the foundation of Pashto language basics. Pashto also has masculine and feminine nouns , just like Urdu. For masculine nouns, we commonly use “de”, while feminine nouns often use “da” depending on context and dialect. At the beginner level, focusing on commonly used masculine examples helps learners build confidence ...

Random Thoughts ... 5

  Here is what I was thinking for the last few days. I've used Asana for work in the past, but recently, I’ve started using ClickUp . It has some familiar features, like the Kanban Board similar to Asana, but it’s more robust. Best of all, it’s free! 🎉 Let’s see how it fares. For those who aren’t familiar, Asana and ClickUp are project management and productivity tools . They help you accomplish tasks efficiently, with features like chat, meetings, document sharing, tracking, and much more integrated into the software. 🛠️ As I’ve gotten more serious about this blog, I’m using these tools to stay on track. You can use them for personal tasks too! For instance, you can set goals, assign deadlines, and break down your goals into actionable steps. Just give them a try—they're fun to use and give you a sense of accomplishment when you hit your targets. ✅ Another thought I had is about how the invention of computers and the web helps us understand spiritual concepts more easily....

10 Awesome Posts from LinkedIn - Number 6 Is Funny

These are some of the stories that I wanted to share with you in no particular order. 1. The first story is about a Pakistani engineer who created the fastest car engine . We have an immense talent in our people. We just need the right environment and opportunities. 2. This stood out to me because I am interested in this subject. Business relationships need integrity and professionalism. If you are dealing with a more professional individual or organization, then you should buy from them (if you want, obviously). You are not obliged by religion to buy only from people of your faith. 3. This post resonated with me because the way 'hard work' is glamorized. I am not saying that you should not work hard. What I am saying is that it is portrayed as an entrepreneur you should follow a certain standard of overwork to be successful. In my opinion success is not a goal, it is a process. You should have fun along the way. 4. This is to reassure myself. I was recently...

  Here is what has been on my mind this week.  First, I added a like/dislike button at the bottom of the website. It is visible on all pages. You can like (I hope you enjoy my blogs) or dislike (as this will help me improve). But it is not conclusive; you may like one blog post and not the other. So, I am experimenting and will decide whether to add individual buttons on all pages or just go with the global button. Try it 👍/👎 Similarly, I was thinking of shifting my blog from Blogger to another web hosting service with a new blog title. Eventually, I will have to shift my website as the website will grow and have more visitors, God willing. I will only have to redirect the traffic to the new domain and it will be seamless for you. See, I am becoming a programmer! Just kidding :) However, I am learning something new about web development every day. 💻📶 I was thinking about Palestine, too. People in Gaza are desperate and need financial assistance. I heard something good. Je...
