I forget I'm bilingual until I get scared or annoyed. That's when these words pop out and I'm like ooo she's educated.

@DarlingSelah Punjabi.

But because there's a range of languages spoken where my parents are from, I also understand Urdu and Hindi fluently. I just don't have incentive to speak it.

@NickiHijab I've had enough Pakistani friends point this out but it always blows my mind how diverse Pakistan is because I always ('cause I'm a dummy) assume Urdu as the default. But of course. It's a huge region full of mountains and tons of colonial political history why would there be a monoculture it ain't Iowa.

@CountScrofula Yeah, it's very diverse. Despite Urdu being the national language, It's a second language for most. It's taught in schools and what you see on mainstream Pakistani media so it kinda acts as a bridge of communication for everyone in different regions.
Punjabi is technically the most spoken language. Although even Punjabi has a shit ton of dialects and they're not all mutually intelligible.

@NickiHijab A homosexshah??

I love how people saying shit in funny ways is your favourite genre of anything.

@CountScrofula they're my people. I can't go a day without altering my voice in some way. Even if it's to myself. It's like a stress reliever. Too much on my mind? Bamn, I'm suddenly Scottish for the day.
