Product Description
Would you like to be able to speak to the fellows on the cover of this book? This is the book for you! Are you a grunt in a foxhole just trying to get out of this alive? You really need this book! Pashto is a language spoken by at least 40 million people in Southern and Eastern Afghanistan and in the Northwest Frontier Province of Pakistan. Estimates of the number of Pashto speakers range from 40 million to 60 million, which should make it among the most widely spoken languages in the world. One source ranks it as number 20 in the world in the number of speakers of the language. Another source ranks it as number 35. However, most sources do not rank it at all. The language seems to be virtually unknown except among those in contact with it. This is the definitive, authoritative work on the Pashto Language.
