Hindko:
اوا ای کے شے چا کے کن آیا ویں 😑

Wait till he finds out how Western Indians can understand Eastern Pakistanis but not Eastern or Southern India and that Eastern & Southern India can't understand each other 😂

Or that 'Hindi' was invented by the British, which name they stole from the Native Indus Valley language of Hindko.

Blame the British Empire whose defining characteristic was misnaming people to support the narrative of Empire. The Kushans noted only two Native languages in Punjab: Hindko & Arya. Then, along came the British 2000 years later & renamed Jatti as "Punjabi" because Jatts were their mercenaries

"Hindi" is an artificial language invented by the British occupation to exploit South Asia.

It has nothing to do with historic "Hind" which is the Farsi word for the Indus Valley region mostly in Pakistan. Indeed the Farsi word for the Native language of the Indus Valley is Hindko aka Chachi.

For a wandering Pukhtun scion, the city's gardens and lanes became an anchor, and marrying into a Hindko-speaking family meant marrying Peshawar itself.

In terms of Hindko. It's particularly irritating that English 'historians' who are mostly propagandists will deliberately mispronounce words & names to pretend ethnic groups no longer exist e.g. they pronounce names of Emperor's like Mir Dad Ashkazai as 'Mithradates Arsaces'.

'Hindi' was invented much later along with Urdu, mainly for British occupation purposes.

It's a word in Hindko or Chachi to use the Native word.

Jatti than it does Hindko. And as I said, the Roma in Afghanistan call their language *Jatti* not Chachi or Sindhi let alone "Punjabi". If they were from Punjab why not Punjabi? Afghans are familiar with Punjab.

And since Jatts migrated from Sindh, this is why I think the origin is Sindh.

I'm not saying the Roma didn't exist centuries ago, I'm not even saying they didn't travel or live for a time in Pinjoba.

What I'm saying is that according to Kushan records only two languages were spoken in Pinjoba: Arya & Chachi--renamed Hindko by foreigners. Roma shows more of the elements of

Interesting you think *after* colonialism was bad.

Tens of millions of people were starved to death in Malthusian famines to depopulate Pinjoba of its native Pashto & Hindko/Chachi speaking people & replace them with Gangoo/Jatt colonialism compradors.
