Format[edit]
You can save a little trouble by switching to a template format, like this The {{infl}} 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)
Why did you remove the content from this page? Nadando 20:39, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
- 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[edit]
When you use the {{infl}} 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)
