i still maintain that people who have no direct roots to the subcontinent could not claim to be pakistani, since thier great great grandfather left India long before partition, long before independence, and his descendants today could not know just what town or city thier ancestors hailed from. most of the desis out in the carribean are like that. most of the mohajirs you see today have no idea what city or or town thier grandparents came out of either.

This may be a long shot, but are memons in any way related/associated with Meerpuri people?

this thread was my one and only hope of being able tokeep my language skillzz intact. now its like, on a ventilator and my hopes are crushed

RIP.

I'd like to take a stab at this:

Didn't ask you, beti. What does a girl/woman know? dont know the rest.

You are, (something) girl, and dont know the rest.

And this too:

brothers, sisters, are you dead?

Is there a partner/saathi?

the "brothers, sisters, are you dead?" was a great translation

"I wasn't asking you, beti. Do girls/women ever play cards? It's not considered/wouldn't be said to be good.

Go.. be a good girl, and 'garh' (literally melt/make 'naram') roti in the kitchen."

marre is another way of saying 'badhe' .. means 'everyone' or 'everything' (depending on context)

translation of the sentence:
'brothers, sisters, how are all of you?'

koi ke sathyo ramnu ai = 'does anyone want to play sathyo/satyo' (aka whist, or better known as rang/trumps in pakistan)

Damn

I'll delete my post if you delete yours.

[sixpakistan]

that should actually be 'thoke nathe puchiyos' for past tense or 'thoke na puchiyosthe'

the first line i said meant that: even i can understand that much, thanks

anyway sixpakistan basically said that there were already some dumb girls in this thread, so why did gotfive have to come in and start posting?

talk about insulting...
