Pain and hardships allow you to grow spiritually Alhamdulilah so smile when a so called calamity befalls upon you.
Alhamdulilah Allah swt is the greatest.

as long as we know the basics, it shouldn't matter much. its not like i'm asking for pashto poets or scholars brother.

Dilta raasha
raasa
Zamaan da tarfa saalgirah mubarak shah
pakhayr raaglay (does it mean i'm good?)
and a few more (probably)
i have no idea what raasa you're talking about but pakhyr raghalay is what you say when someone's at your home, or any place someone reaches before you. so you be like ta pa khayr raghay. that sounds really typical though. the literal meaning in urdu would be something like aap khyr se aya hay/hain/whatever.
maybe mmany pathans dont agree with that, i myself have been here for only 2 months, 8 days. but i've learned enough i guess. but seems like i'm loosing my welsh though.
dair kha lala gi, taso ta kho bala shay pukhto razi!
translation: very good, lala gi. you know well enough pushto/something like that i guess...

No I don't at all lol. I'll ask my pukhtoon and afghan friends to help me
teach me more
Kaash wo pal paida hee na ho
jis pal main nazr tu naa aye
how do i say, how are you? and im good, what about you?
its ta sanga a? or ta singa a?( the "a" sounds like "aayy" (the normal a i mean)) za tik yam, or how they usually say: za tik tak yam. taso wayae sanga chal day?
so it's going to be like: ta singa a? za tiik yam. taso wayae./sanga chal day?
How similar is Pashto to Farsi? Our Afghani relatives speak Farsi, not Pashto.
i really dont know how they can relate? we have loads of afghani's here in my part of pakistan that they call kabalian, doesn't matter which part of afghanistan they're from. i have this one kabalay class mate who speaks farsi, but no i dont know anything about it. i guess the only way i can relate them is if you speak farsi, then learning pashto wont take much time and vice versa, because the accents are very much similar.
i think both farsi and pashto are spoken in afghanistan. some people in pakistan also speak farsi( i just asked safu kaka and he told me that) but they're in much bigger numbers in afghanistan and iran i guess, maybe other countries too.
the kabalay class mate speaks really fast farsi and no one understands a word. he usually starts up when someone's like please shut up(he talks too much) or the teachers be like stop this blah blah blah and he'll start up with the farsi.
