| Description |
I want to learn Pashto. I am a beginner. I have some familiarity with the Arabic script.
Why do I want to learn Pashto? I love langauges, and Pashto is a good gateway language. It is Indo-Iranian, but yet has retroflex consonants and borrows some vocabulary from Urdu and other languages of India. So, if I master Pashto, I will later be easier to learn many additional languages. Right now, I want to concentrate on Pashto, but later I would like to learn the other languages.
I can study grammar on my own very well. But I need to drill in proper pronunciation , as well as have somebody check the sentences I write for errors. I need conversation practice too. I would like to eventually translate longer things, such as newspaper articles, into Pashto or from Pashto into English - and then a teacher check my translation for correctness.
I can dedicate much time to my language lessons. I will be willing to move to the city where you teach, if it is in the USA.
For this, if you know of a family or a group of college students, etc, who has room for an extra roommate (I can pay them rent), and people in that house or apartment speak Pashto at home, please let me know.
Same with any of the other languages (such as Urdu, Hindi, Farsi, Gujarati, etc). Even if I just hear one of the other languages, but be mainly studying Pashto, I will still be passively assimilating the other language. Then later on, it will be easier when I study it.
In any event, if your city has a place where people speak Pashto, such as a certain grocery store, coffee shop. let me know. Or is you know of a Pashto-speaki ng family that needs babysitting done. (Children speak the purest form of a language - babysitting Pashto-speaki ng children will teach me much Pashto.) It is important to hear people actually using a language to truly master it.
