Salam

i have difficulty understanding certain phrases and to be honest certain conversations. for example i can understand pushto spoken by someone who was raised in england but will struggle with an afghani same problem

A pakhtun from kabul, logar, jalalabad would probably not have too much difficulty, but a kanadahari/helmandi definately would.

keep in mind that afghan pashto is much more "pure" than ours (PAk). many of the words we use are in fact urdu words which are pronounced with a pashtun accent, while the afghans especially the southerners would use a completely diff. vocabulary.
