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 ...
I am going to share my experience with web development using WordPress.org, WordPress.com, Wix.com, and Blogger.com. That’s not going to be a paragraph-by-paragraph, but what salient features I liked about them randomly. I have used WordPress (both .org and .com versions), Wix, and Blogger by Google. I got a little HTML, CSS, and JS experience as well, so it helped me in some aspects.

This current blog is in Blogger CMS. It is very simple and intuitive. However, the themes are limited, as well as the storage. It has around 15 GB of storage, which is enough for a small to medium-sized business. But as your traffic grows as well as the web content, you need more storage and bandwidth.
Another thing is that it is a bit dated; for example, in the sharing link, there is still an option for Twitter, and there is no link for LinkedIn. I know they are rivals, but still, they are used by billions, so there should be an option. The domain name for the free service has blogspot in it, but you can link your custom domain anyway.
Wix is new, sleek, and stylish. If you want a beautiful-looking website, you can make it with Wix. They have SEO options as well. You can also do some email marketing with it. For example, you can tell people about your new blog post, etc.
On the other hand, one word to describe WordPress is Robust! WordPress has such a big 3rd party support in terms of plugins and themes. Although it is not that flashy (you may disagree), in terms of themes. But it is great for customizing your theme. If you have a UI/UX/Designer in your team, you can virtually make any envisioned website.
Another that I noticed is that in Blogger, you can use custom HTML, CSS, and JS in the blog posts, i.e., making small scripts for games and quizzes, but in WP, you need to install plugins. You can do SEO on your web pages with the all-famous Yoast plugin. Contrarily, on Blogger, you have very limited options. The biggest turn-off factor on Blogger is that it has only one central HTML file. You don’t have separate pages for different blog posts (I may be wrong, as I am learning web development).
Web development used to be very technical in the past, but now, with no-code solutions, anyone can make a good and professional website. If you are an entrepreneur, I will encourage you to take a plunge; at least, you will gain a new skill.
