Financial reports can feel intimidating, especially for founders without a finance background. But understanding the basics can dramatically improve decision-making and confidence. In this practical guide, Rebecca Nankya Ssemugabi breaks down how to read a balance sheet in simple, everyday language, supported by a hands-on balance sheet generator you can try yourself. M ost founders don’t struggle with running a business. They struggle with understanding the numbers behind it. And few reports feel more intimidating than the balance sheet. But here’s the truth: a balance sheet is simply a snapshot of what your business owns, what it owes, and what’s actually yours at a specific point in time.

I was born and raised in Kohat, a historic town in KPK Province, Pakistan. While Pashto is the majority language here, coexisting with Hindko and Urdu, I personally struggled to master it. I spent years navigating conversations, feeling disconnected from local population. I made a solemn promise: if I ever achieved fluency, I would use that knowledge to serve the language. That promise led me here.
This mini-course on how to speak Pashto is my attempt to honor that commitment and make this beautiful, resilient language accessible. Join me to explore Pashto and preserve its vital role in global culture!

Pashto, also known as Pakhto or Afghani, is a profound Eastern Iranian language spoken by an estimated 60 million people worldwide, primarily the Pashtun people (Pakhtuns) across Afghanistan and Pakistan. It holds official status in Afghanistan and is a major regional language in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province (KPK) of Pakistan.
Pashto is written in Arabic script modified to include additional letters. The language is rooted in two main dialects; the Northern/Peshawari dialect (hard 'sh' sound) and the Southern/Kandahari dialect (soft 'kh' sound). Pashto's literary tradition is rich, dating back centuries, and it is a cornerstone of the ancient Pashtun code of honor, Pashtunwali.
If you enjoyed this mini lesson share it with friends who want to learn Pashto. Over time I will improve this course by adding sounds but it is still useful as it gives the pronunciation and meaning in English. Hope you will like it.
