What's new

Passing out Parade of 141th Long Course e.t.c held at Kakul , 4th April 2020 .

Thats fukin bullshit. Which “turks” you speakin bout? The Pashto speaking Gilzai aka Khiljis? Or the Persian speaking mughals?

It was the end of mughal empire when they started speaking urdu.. and even that doesnt make it ours.
Urdu developed and got adopted by the Mughals later on.

Does that mean you are also against the Abdali, Ghauri and Ghaznavi missiles?
Do you think the masses even knew what Jinnah thought or did ?

My Grandfather told me bout his experience with Jinnah.

A thin tall man who spoke English to masses who applauded without even understanding what he was saying.

Ppl werent on fb or had cable and 9 o clock hustle with anchors dissing eachother and the govt.
Even bangali language movement didnt start till the late 50s.

But yes he should have chosen Persian instead of Urdu. It was a language already spoken and understood by the people. And it had similarities with all the regional languages.

So what made people applaud him when they couldn't understand him?

What would happen if English achieves that? Would Pakistan become a developed country? If speaking English = being educated then only English language should be taught for the first 5 years in school. Children spend 6 hours in school. if they spend 6 hours everyday on learning English then all or most of them would be able to read and write in English after 5 years. Other subjects like science history etc should be taught from class 6

If English is chosen, it will restore the martian pride which is hurt by speaking Urdu.
 
Other benefits not pride. If entire population of Pakistan can speak or understand English how would it benefit Pakistan

It will help them get billions and billions of dollars more from Trump and the Queen.

What is the faida if everyone started speaking Persian? No Zakaat for the government?
 
Bas dollars ziada milain aur koi faida nhi?
And Farsi bolnay sa?

Persian is a beautiful language. It can unlock Central Asia for Pakistan.

Sadly people who have anger issues and curse alot cannot speak Persian nor Arabic nor make use of any language they may speak.
 
Arabic and Persian speakers ko ghussa nhi aata? Farz karain everyone in Pakistan can speak English like you how would it change Pakistan?

Arabic and Persian speakers have more words to subdue the anger.

If everyone starts speaking English, Bilawal may get to rule Pakistan for 30 years before someone shooting another Bhutto dead.
 
I thought Pakistan would become a developed country like UK USA Australia etc. Nigeria main English boltay hain?

Nigerians are fluent in English.

I do not think the developed country status is important, it is the return to Raja Dahir status they want.

So a relatively new language has achieved such a status that abandoning it in favor of regional dialects makes us heathens vahhh! You are like those kabulis selling culture in the guise of religion.
 
British favoured Hindus and tried to impose Hindi on us

You already speak "hindi", you just call it "Urdu". For example before the Mughal period there was no such thing as "Punjabi" language, the word "punjabi" was alien and totally unknown in the region that is now called "Punjab", the name of this language was "Lahori" because Lahore was centre of this region at that time. And if we go even further back the language was probably called "Madri" because the dominant kingdom in this region was Madra in old times with its centre at Sialkot.

.......... English is the only language that should be taught in schools.

People in Pakistan have a romanticism that the language that is spoken on the streets must be the language of education and writing. That is not the case in any country. For example the the written book "German" is not the language that people usually speak on the streets of various regions of Germany. The street language has very "divergent" dialects compared to the book language. Sometimes the difference is so stark that someone from Hamburg in north germany will not get anything from someone from Stuttgart or Munich in south germany if they speak in their pure local german dialects. In fact there is far less difference between Saraiki and Punjabi "languages" than the difference between the local indigenous dialects of northern Germany and the local indigenous dialects of southern Germany, yet people speaking all these divergent dialects are perfectly fine to write in standard book german language, that was used and promoted by German philosophers and scientists over the past few centuries because it benefits them all.

......
Urdu is the most poetic, sophisticated and meaningful language on earth. To disregard Urdu is to disregard knowledge and humanity.

And what has Urdu poetry given to the world? Urdu poetry didn't develop any electricity, trains, cars, bikes, aeroplanes, Televisions, computers, telephones, cameras etc. Why should we feel that we owe anything to the so-called sophisticated poetic BS nature of Urdu language :lol:.
 
Absolutely right. Urdu was and will remain a useless language. Urdu was imposed on us. A mother tongue of only 6% of population of Pakistan. Our consent was not taken when this foreign language was imposed on us and this language is the main reason Pakistan split into two. English is the only language that should be taught in schools.

it's not mother tongue to even 6 percent of the alleged Urdu speaking minority who is allegedly ruling the majority in your paranoid mind.
 
In 2017 census 7.08 people told Urdu as their mother tongue. In Punjab close to 4.87 percent people told Urdu as their mother tongue. These 7 percent are the people who consider Urdu as their mother tongue baqi to phir uneducated bhi Urdu boltay and smjhtay hain. Fully uneducated pashtu speaking workers speak Urdu without any problem in Punjab

They probably chose it because they had not listed their native languages.

Census also said there are 14.5 million Karachiites who are Pakistanis and rest of the 10 million are refugees, asylum seeker or illegal immigrants.

Who will give vaccine to these 10 million undocumented Karachiites?
 
A lot of people who told their mother tongue Punjabi speak Urdu more fluently than native speakers.
Census said there are 14 million people. Politicians of Karachi want more national and provicial assembly seats isliye propaganda krtay hain.

Who cares what politicians want? Pakistan cannot afford a city with 10 million undocumented human beings.
