Thank you Mehboob for sharing this.
To the best of my Wakhi vocabulary:
i) Ibex in Wakhi (Gojal) is Vizhik (Male: Yukshh: Female: Merg)
ii) Blue Sheep in Wakhi is Rama Poi
iii) Marco Polo Sheep in Wakhi is Roosh
Any other member could help us correct our basics.
Mehboob, we would like some ‘short stories about the socio-economic status and development process in Wakhan. You can also introduce some teachers, poets and local scholars to PT so that we get to know their world view.
Regards
Amin Beg
