This
shop specializes in intricate machine embroidery, I had some very beautiful
pieces done here. To communicate we had to use all possible resources, even
my meagre knowledge of Arabic, which the shop owner understood because he,
like tens of thousands of Pakistani men, has been working in some Arab country
for a few years. My Urdu is limited to only a few words, just what I remember
from times long past, and from related Indian languages. It seems to me
that English nowadays isn't spoken as widely in Pakistan as it used to be. |
