Huh!


What exactly does the name of this village mean? And which language is this- Pakhto, Urdu?Or some dumb concoction by someone who likes to call himself/herself pakhtoon but doesn't know what pakhto or pukhto and pashto is all about and cannot speak the language?

Do you mean 'pakhtoonwali'?
Never heard of the word 'pakhtoonwalla'
Even more stupid was the one called 'pathanilounge'

I agree with you bushra, I haven't seen many pushtoons who will get offended by "pathan".

question is what is pakhto--dont we all say that?

Dont we also say pukhtoonwal when we are refering to some pukhtoon person "sook pukhtoon wal de"

Actually many pukhtoons refer to themselves as pathans..only a handful are aware of the history pukhtoons and the word pathans.
