A Guide to the Street Language of Karachi

nice, to hear that even the eduacated elites like to use these slangs (our slangs!) as me and my friends are techies we have changed meaning and added some more to that.
the word chutya to make it more general we transformed it into Chutiotics: any silly action or that shows you are silly)
another word in the technicals is Cheetah (any person who proves to be good in anything or even he solves some problem)
thre are many we generate all the time.
we use another word for something extraterrestrial we call it rouhani baat (it is named after a friend of ours who is good in doing things like that)
thre are many to be revealed many to be heard but one thing is there they are good and they make a difference.:)

Panjabi definately expresses galis better. In fact, many times, normal Panjabi sounds like galis..e.g. words like kuddi, choti, gut etc in one sentence sound galeesh..

KLPD khade lun*d pe dhokha

KLPC khade lun*d pe chot

bhhutni ke

Read only if profanity does not offend you......

*****************************************************************************************************

MaaN Ka Lun$ - Mother Dic$

Ku$ Ka Dhukan - female genitalia`s cover

Teri maaN ka bhosra - mother`s genitalia

Kus Madar - same as above

Bhosari Ka - someone who comes out birth canal

Maddar/Bahan Cho$ - should be self explanatory....

Patla Lun$ - should be self explanatory....

Dala - Pimp

Ban-Bhosri Ka - Beats me...anyone care to explain

KLPD - KhaRe Lun$ Per Dhoka (my version)

Punjabi is definitely by all means king when it comes to galis.

What about other widely spoken languages in Pakistan like Pashtu, Sindhi etc.

I still remember tons of gAndi (dirty) Shayr-o-shaiyari, anyone interested ? of course if we are not violating freedom of speech and ``Chowk`` policies Wink! wink!

Oops...sorry.....the original article was by Mr Syed Ali...im sorry.....i mentioned mr Wajahat..my mistake...probably due to the side splitting laughter i suffered from just now....;-)

I remember there used to be two guys in our college...
Asim and Mohsin...

Asim was very fair...therefore he became Asim Chikna.
Mohsin had acne so conveniently he became Mohsin Khurdura...

later everyobody forgot their real names and they were just referred to chikna and khurdura...

A typical enquiry used to be...aray kisi nai chiknay ko dekha hai ? or...Khurduray nai aaj sub ki lai lee...

in my days there was also one term called ` Puchas..` ( 50 ) for something very good. and if it was really really good. it was Tubbah puchas..

haiN ?
more then 80% of the phrases here are my daily language...
I dont think there is any profanity in ` chal salay phoot` or ` chiknay ki lai lee`...
and yes `charya` means insane in sindhi. In karachi Civil hospital`s Psychiatry ward there was a big board saying ` charyoN jo ward`...

MAAAN...this is hillarious...i mean its been quite some time since ive read something so genuinely bizzare....and comical...ridiculous even...i mean it reads like some guys psychological disorder biography...i think im going to look around for more of his `enlightened scriptures` on the chowk....and IT IS `genuine material`..no doubt.....
Oh sorry wajahat bhai...your article was fun too..but im referring to Mr. MBZIspahani(did i get all the abcs correct?)
Oh and lets all thank the fine gentleman for saving Pakistan and our other Muslim brothers from bombing...bravvo....and sir..since it seems your mails are so effective...could you send General Musharraf a mail....to get me a job?..Id be very thankful sir....:-D

A very simple answer to your almost pedantically academic observation is that `` I am not married``.

Thus I can get away with it all the time..... Sala baat karta hai :)

wajahat. .
my remark about the chowk guidelines was meant to be a joke, as is most of what i`ve said here, and if you couldn`t see that, well then you`ve missed the point as well. : )

**** R rated. Please dont read if you are offended by crude sexual terminology ****

KLPD = KhaRe Lau**e Per DagaR (DagaR = stone in Marathi) = Dropping stone on one`s erection

A very colorful and perfect term to describe huge disappointment after great excitement and anticipation ;-))

``patli gali..``
This surely was imported to karachi from UP. This actually refers to anal intercourse offcourse. (Also known as the Nawabi Showk).
Other UP anti-muslim sliur for Burqa.. ``Pahentey ho Muh Pe or lekin kehtey ho bur-ka?``
As our resident linguistic experts will tell, bur (or bud and bund) word comes from ``root``, but has street connotations which are also basic.

Urstruly & sameer:
My take on the word Langote is that it is derived from Ling or lang ( however onr pronounces that) and -ote is simply cover like ``purday kee ote hojanaa``.

jaang or jhaang is a polite word for pelvic area or thighs, hence jangia. Opposed to this is Angia or Ungiaa--which just means PART or covering THE parts (again politely never mentioned).

Dhotee is the piece one uses to wear aftera wash--from DhO. A muti-purpose towel, wrap-around, or toilet after-wipe

Any further comments?
