Scenes in Pashto language are so off its insulting

This is ridiculous that a company the size of Apple with their budget, could not find a real Afghan to consult on the language scenes and speak the language which they use in the show, Pashto, properly.

In fact this issue is not related to Apple or Invasion alone, I have yet to see one movie about Afghanistan, where the characters are speaking Pashto in the movie, and they actually speak properly. The version is Invasion is not remotely close to the real language, they have come up with some gobbledygook and are trying to pass it off for Pashto.

What language does the Taliban address the public in? Dari or Pashto?

They're having another press conference now. I presume more Afghans understand Dari, but the Taliban also has a strong connotation with the Pashtuns.

Pashto Language Children’s Book

Hello so my town in the uk is going to be housing some Afghan refugees. Including children. A local group is doing a drive for book donations, clothes, shoes etc. I feel like a lot of the books donated are going to be in English. I got in touch with the charity and asked if they knew which official afghan language the families spoke and was told it was Pashto.

So i’m hoping to buy some books written in that language. I can’t even begin to imagine how utterly terrifying and traumatic it is to have to uproot your entire life and move as a child to a country where you may not know the language.

I’m hoping if i’m able to give them books in their mother tongue. It might help bring these children some sort of familiarity and comfort.

Passing on Pashto – 1. The beginning of language learning + Think-alouds

بِسْمِ Ψ§Ω„Ω„ΩŽΩ‘Ω‡Ω Ψ§Ω„Ψ±ΩŽΩ‘Ψ­Ω’Ω…ΩŽΩ†Ω Ψ§Ω„Ψ±ΩŽΩ‘Ψ­ΩΩŠΩ…

(My apologies for how long it took to get to this! πŸ˜… Although this series is to encourage teaching Pashto, I will relay the information to you in English as it would take me too long to try and translate some of these concepts to Pashto!)

This will cover a strategy to start using in the first six months of your child’s life and to continue using until they are skilled language users.

There are many different theories about when children's language learning actually begins – some say during gestation, others say as soon as they enter the world, others speculate a few weeks after birth.

What is known for certain is that language is a tool used to communicate and most babies come into the world pre-programmed with their own communication tools (crying) that they learn to adjust based upon external responses. What is also certain is that typically developing babies are sponges who absorb everything you do and say, long before they speak and show any sign that they are doing so. As relates to learning Pashto, it is up to you to ensure they are absorbing a good, rich model of language from the moment they are born.

The most effective, essential, and often overlooked strategy to use in this phase in order to develop a good base for language is the strategy of think-alouds. You may think you are already doing this and that it is just common sense, but it needs to be an active and conscious effort that is consistent throughout your day. On the other hand, you may think it is silly because children naturally pick up language, but research has consistently proven that conscious and well-modelled think alouds by parents and carers foster significantly better oral comprehension and richer language in children.

What are think-alouds?

Think-alouds basically mean that you verbalise your thinking. In doing so, you provide a good model of language for your child to internalise as their own thought process and to rely upon when they start speaking. By using it consistently throughout the day, you expose them to a wide variety of vocabulary, enriched language, and oral comprehension strategies. Even though your baby does not seem to respond or care that you are speaking your thoughts to them, you must continue to do so throughout the day so that they hear and absorb the language.

Examples of how you can use think-alouds include –

Β· When you’re getting your baby ready for the day, talk to them about what you have p

The Pashto and Romani languages

Both have a lot of commonalities despite not being directly related. Both are regarded as β€˜difficult’ languages to learn and share many other details. The majority of both who speak either consider themselves speakers and have many dialect variations

Pashto had its own literature and is an official language in at least one country whereas Romani never had any status and remained oral - Pashto is now also largely oral and without prestige though some movements exist and is used in varied media.

Millennia ago and even now there remains some contact between the two cultures even though there are very few Romani-speaking Roma in Asia today. It is frowned upon to teach outsiders Romāno or Romanes. There may not be any speakers left in Afghanistan, Pakistan or India at present but it survives in Iran.
