Language


POsted By Muhammad Basharat



Languages of Pakistan include two official languages: Urdu, which is also the national language and Pakistan's lingua franca, and English. Additionally, Pakistan has four major provincial languages: Punjabi, Pashto, Sindhi, and Balochi, as well as three major regional languages: Saraiki, Hindko and Kashmiri.




Most of the languages of Pakistan belong to the Indo-Iranian branch of the Indo-European language family.


Urdu (اردو) is Pakistan's national language (قومی زبان) and the lingua franca of Pakistan. Although only about 8% of the Pakistani population speak Urdu as their mother tongue, it is understood and spoken by 90% of the country's population throughout the length and breadth of Pakistan.[2] Urdu is written in a modified script of the Arabic alphabet, known as Nastaliq.



The first recorded poetry in Urdu was by the Persian poet Amir Khusro (1253) (امیر خسرو–1325); the first Urdu book, Dah Majlis, was published in 1728. The first time the word "Urdu" was used was in 1751, by Sirajuddin Arzoo (سراج الدین آرزو).




Urdu has historical significance as the language developed during the Islamic conquests of the South Asian subcontinent, especially under the Mughal Empire. It was chosen as the national language of Pakistan because it was a neutral common language that could be understood and spoken by the various language groups of Pakistan.



Urdu is, increasingly, being adopted and spoken as a first language by a new generation of urbanised Pakistanis, especially in large cosmopolitan cities such as Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad/Rawalpindi.


Provincial language:

  1. Punjabi
  2. Pushtu
  3. Sindhi
  4. Balochi

Places


Murree
Posted By Muhammad Basharat





Murree is a hill station on the border between Punjab and Azad Kashmir in Pakistan.
An American journalist Camile wrote, that, "Everything and anything can happen in Murree. Romance is in the atmosphere; intrigue is in the air. The roads to this happy holiday's resort embrace both the heaven and earth. In Murree it is easy to fall in love".



Murree was once a charming colonial town nestled in the Himalayan foothils - but the last 10 years have seen rampant development and today Murree more closely resembles a litter-strewn overcrowded tourist resort. However it remains exceedingly popular with Pakistani families and still receives glowing recommendations from this demographic.


For the international visitor heading further north to the Galis may prove more rewarding. In summer it is cool - even chilly in the evening - while light rain is common. In winter Murree hides herself under thick blanket of snow, however view tourists visit at this time and most hotels and attractions will be closed.


Driving in or through Murree is at best a nightmare - the roads are too narrow, and the cars too many. There are alternatives. Public transport ( buses, taxis and vans ) are readily available but would be generally crowded.



Except for the Islamabad-Murree highway all other roads are single / two lane roads and the driver should be conversant withmountain driving skills.



The nearest air link is Islamabad International Airport and the nearest rail Link is at Rawalpindi Cantonment Station.
