whatever he calls his sister in law call them that
and calll his mom mother.. we afghan love it when ppl like sister-in-law or bother-in-law calls our mom mother.
three kisses from cheeks and kiss her hand ..and salam chetor aste (dari)
salam singa yeh(pashto)
my bf speaks DARI btw.
Just greet them normal . If u want to impress them then just do what freindly said . But If they know tha t you dont speak any farsi then you shouldnt .
its hard to fake the talent you cant do.
salam,
my sister in law is not an afghan girl but she is 10000 % better instead of some afghan girls. We all the whole family love her very very much and we all respect her very much. She dont kiss hands or cook afghan foods ;-) but she has only a strong personality and nice heart. That is important. In some way its also important to speak Dari else she cant communicate with us. Now she speaks fluently dari and knows alot about our culture and how we think and live.
its important to speak a little dari and just show respect for afghan culture and traditions. you dont have to accept them just respect them.

ur feelings u wouldnt be able to hide and i am sure they will know that ..
-YEAH,IT’S NORMAL ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR FACING THE PARENTS OF YOUR LOVING MAN..FEELS LIKE NERVOUS,CONFUSED NOR TOO CURIOUS IF THEY’LL LIKE YOU OR NOT.
i dont think even an afghan gal would care that much
-WHAT DO YOU MEAN THEY’RE NOT THAT CONCERNED OR CURIOUS ABOUT THE IN LAWS? =S

i mean to say there are some afghan gals that they dont really care about what happens in the family all they want is the guy thats it
I think that It all has to do with they person ur having the relationship with .. . . if he respects and accepts his culture / religion than u will definately learn from him. But if he has no interest in his religion/cuture than why would you waste ur time to be someone ur not whic he could care less about in the first place.
yeah right…why waste my time if the man doesnt even care abouton his own culture/religion…but anyhoo…I am so interested=) thanks mariam jan.
