Just yesterday I was sitting with a friendly group of aussies, aborigines, african, asian etc. During the normal chit chat they found out I was talking to my son in a different kind of language instead of Urdu. They ask me what it was and I replied it Pashto. The conversation went like this:
Guy 1: What language is that?
Me: Pashto
Guy 1: What kind of language it is?
Me: Its language from northern part of Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Guy 2: Yeah, that kinda sound like Persian.
Me: Persian is totally different from Pastho.
Guy 2: The Afghans here talk in Persian, ain't it?
Me: No, they talk in Darri.
Guy 2: Whats the difference?
[At this moment I was searching for words to explain but I said something weird unexpectedly]
Me: Generally both are same but Darri is kinda hard dialect and Persian sounds gayish!
Everyone stares at me..... I wish I had said Persian is Poetic version of Darri... and that's the word I was searching for but instead said something which really I shouldn't have...!
