Re: Name calling

I wrote this too but deleted, well,I always reply them that I have never heard any case of karo kari or marriage to Quran ( nauzbilah ) in my life,that's only in qisay kahaniyan.

And to be very honest it's true I never heard anything like this in my village or anywhere else in sindh,and no one have more than one wife in our fAmily.

Re: Name calling

I dont think that bhayya word is bad as such but I dont like the undertone to the word, its similar to how the Brits call Pakistanis and we feel offended by the word.

Re: Name calling

I think I know about the word khatmal, but I am not completely sure. But Machar is new for me. :slight_smile:

Re: Name calling

That means I was right about the word khatmal, but this machar one was new for me.

32

Re: Name calling

I was discussing Karachi yesterday. When someone mentioned khatmal and machar ,I thought they meant Karachi real machar, but then they explained.

I found it rude though.

Re: Name calling

it surely is, and is about time that we put ourselves into the shoes of the other person before calling names.

Re: Name calling

Khatmal, machar, akhrot, bhayya - what? Never heard of em. Wth is wrong with people? :nahi:

There has to be some slang for Punjabis too then… is there?

36

Re: Name calling

Even if in friendly way, I wouldn’t call someone like this :bummer:

Umm…they know if they are calling other party machar then other party is calling them khatmal too, so they are ok with this I guess.

Re: Name calling

I heard of this sayin umpteen times from others, and about several ethnicity of indo-pak

Agar tumhare saamne eik (enter the name of ethnicity) ho aur saanp ho, to pehle (enter the name of ethnicity) ko maaro.

I am sure some ethnicity has that saying for Muhaajirs (Urdu Speakings) also :D
