Format
You can save a little trouble by switching to a template format, like this The  template automatically adds the word to the category. Also, please link the translations with square brackets, like this, so that they will link to the translation entry. --EncycloPetey 20:02, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

غين ختل
Why did you remove the content from this page? Nadando 20:39, 15 July 2008 (UTC)


 * 1) Transliteration did not match and I've not heard this term before; غین is also not in any of the 3 Pashto dictionaries that I have


 * Being a vulgar term, it may not be in common dictionaries. ختل is a Pashto verb that means to climb, to mount, so you should attempt to see whether there is a slang meaning of غين, aside from the common noun sense. You might go to Wikipedia and try to find a native Pashtun and ask him. —Stephen 21:01, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Formatting
When you use the template, you should add the term "sc=ps-Arab". This will make it look better. For example: ختل —Stephen 21:06, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Zë yëm Pëkhtoun ;) Just never got a great grip on the language while I was growing up, making up (trying to!) for lost time now!

Can you edit one of the articles with 'sc=ps-Arab' in the right place so I can use that as a template? I don't wanna destroy anything! I updated the article for غین ختل to use the template that the guy above showed me and tweek the transliteration to clearly mark the 'schwa' also. Unidad 21:19, 15 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Sure- see this diff. Nadando 21:27, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
