I can speak English, Urdu and Khowar(Chitrali) and Shina. Can understand and speak a bit of Burushiski(hunzik language), and due to having some pathan friends can also understand and speak a bit of Pashto, mostly understand it. And same is the case with Punjabi, can understand it, only if someone speaks it slowly.

Fluent in English, Bahasa Melayu and Urdu

Understand very little:
Punjabi (from listening)
Mandarin and Cantonese (Self taught from Chinese drama and movies)
Arabic (took 2 semester course to A2)
German (Self taught to A1)
Italian (took 1 semester course of A1)...

Currently trying some Russian and Ukranian from a friend but nothing stays in the mind ...While he managed to learn more Urdu from me :(


Ahh my mistake then....The owner of the house I am renting is married to a Norwegian linguist she was telling me a bit about these...But as usual got mixed up :ashamed:
I can always teach you Khowar(Chitrali), quite easy.

Malayalam Tamil kannada English and hindi
Due to excess exposure to Indian dramas at young age i can somewhat understand Hindi, not too different from Urdu. Then again it's bits and pieces, lol.

I am yet to meet a Punjabi who will speak slowly....My cousins tease me coz I cant understand when they zoom past in either punjabi or Sarieki!

And then my grandparents's generation starts off in some retarded form of Haryana

And when my mom's side goes off in pure Urdu which sounds Persian to me or sometimes mom goes off in Sindhi or in Patohari with some of her friends ...I get annoyed!

Yaar I have enough confusion in my life...Might need to take up another language here in Europe since I travel and am attached to more than 1 institute :(

So true, they all speak it quite fast, so tough.

Do you also have this weird problem where each generation speaks their own language....

Grandparents- retarded Heryana

Parents -
mom's side - Pure Urdu, Patohari and some Punjabi
Dad's side - Punjabi and Saraiki

Cousins all confused kitchri ....I swear if someone made up their own language we wouldnt notice!

Oh and let me not start on the Punjabi dialects each speaks!!!

while mom and dad have friends who speak Sindhi coz parents lived in Karachi some 6-7 yrs dad a bit longer as he was studying there...


I remember when I was a kid I used to get soo annoyed when people asked which par of Pakistan I am from and I would be like Pakistan say hi hain (though in my head I would add aap ko kiya takleef hai?)

English and Hindi proper

can understand most of Urdu but not 100% proficient in it.

a little bit of Punjabi

Urdu, Saraiki, mother tongue is our own version of Saraiki influenced by Pashto, Angrezi, Punjabi and can understand Pothowhari easily, Hindi spoken+understanding and Pashto to some extent when spoken slowly, plus few words of Arabic and Farsi.

Can tell if someone is speaking German, French, Italian, Spanish or Hebrew but that's it for now.

I'm planning to learn as many as possible, one by one.
