What makes you say this? How do “foreign looks” go first?

@S_and_S

Hmmm not in my case. I look like a desi (last time I checked my skin color was still brown), dress like a desi (love Pakistani fashion), have my natural desi hair, my husband has a dari and we eat like desis. Actually we eat like Muslims, Zabiha halal. However, we do not speak Urdu with each other. Oh and yes I wear kajal. Buy it specially from Pakistani stores here. My Nihari is killer, learned it from my dad whose an awesome cook.

There you go mixing culture and religion. Eating jhatka or halal has nothing to do with speaking Urdu. Halal/haram is not only reserved for Pakistanis.

What langugae do you speak with each other?

What are your ancestrsl languages/mother tongues?

Most importantly:

There are a lot more desis with non-desi looks etc. but still have their language skill preserved. Can you disprove it?
