Re: What does “khocha” means?
I was also puzzled that what the hell is khocha wocha. But it seems it is word of U.P-Bihar region where birth of urdu langauge took place. Either some pashto word has corrupted or degenerated into khocha over the course of three centuries or indian pathans have invented the word for themeselves.Pathan/pathani is also indian thing. Slowly and gradually some punjabi/sindhi/mohajir people are now using proper word pashtun instead of indian pathan/pathani. You have to understand that our indo-iranian cultures are very different from their indic/desi ones, forexample i am finding this word “pathani” very offensive for our pashtun/afghan females but for them it is normal word. Even though i have told @KKF not to use crude word pathani but i am sure he would continue using it, as this word is used in their part of world and they grew up listening to it.
