westerners are evil :-) maghrabi muaashray kay log buray hotay hain Explanation: farangi is related to british people so i think maghrabi is better word for western people. this word is widely used to refer to europeans in urdu language. |

westerners are evil :-) firangi log bahut bure hote hain Explanation: firangi log bahut bure hote hain -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 23 hrs 54 mins (2005-08-21 09:01:09 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The following online Englsih-Urdu dictionary gives these meanings for Western and West: http://biphost.spray.se/tracker/dict/ western: a. GHarbi/farañgi/maGHribi/pachchhumi westerner: n. gora/farañgi/maGHribi mulk ka/wilayati westernise: v.i. farañgi atwaar apnaana/maGHrib zadah hojana/ maGHribi atwaar apnaana -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day 17 hrs 9 mins (2005-08-22 02:16:19 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- To Asghar: I added "bahut" because "bura" just means "bad" and "evil" is a much stronger word than "bad". The "bahut" is intented to intensify the meaning of "bad" and bring it at par with "evil". |
