Now, it's time to practice your pronunciation and writing skills. Take a pen and a piece of paper and write down the numbers from 1 to 10 in Pashto script. Then, try to read them out loud several times until you feel confident with their pronunciation.
Here are some exercises to help you practice:
- Say the numbers in Pashto from 1 to 10, then repeat them backwards.
- Ask a friend to give you a random number from 1 to 10, and you have to say it out loud in Pashto.
- Write down numbers on separate pieces of paper, shuffle them, and then pick them randomly, saying its Pashto equivalent out loud.
