Pashto Feminine
Learning the
Pashto Feminine is very
important because its structure is used in every day conversation. The
more you master it the more you get closer to mastering the Pashto
language. But first we need to know what the role of Feminine is in the
structure of the grammar in Pashto.
Pashto feminine refers to
female qualities attributed specifically to women and girls or things
considered feminine. The complement to feminine is masculine. Here are
some examples:
| English Feminine | Pashto Feminine |

| he is happy | heghh khewshhalh da - هغه خوشحاله دی |
| she is happy | heghh ṣ̌zh khewshha lh dh - هغه ښځه خوشحا له ده |
