Re: Persian For Western Pakistan
Ey bachas na fahmedee....
For those wanting to know, there is a world of difference
between Dari and Farsi. Dari is the purest and oldest
form of the language out there. It uses the suffix 'ra'
and stresses less on words. Farsi lacks the suffix 'ra'
and stresses on the words tremendously. Dari is also
the largest and most widely spoken language of Afghanistan.
Spoken by Tadzhik, Uzbak, Turkman, Hazarah and many
pashtoons. More than 3,000,000 speak the language.
Personally as an Uzbek, I love the language. It's much
more softer than Pushto. Still I don't think any one
should be forced to learn or speak Dari or any other
form of Farsi. Everyone is fine with the language they
speak in Pakistan. Plus part of 'living and let live' theory
is accepting different people and their ethnic backgrounds
rather than trying to shove one's own belief and customs
down someone's throat.
