Lesson Transcript

INTRODUCTION
If you’re lucky enough to be traveling on one of the Metro Bus Services of the country, then once you’re on board, you can look at the electronic information board and check what the next bus stop will be. In other buses though, there are no information boards, so your only option would be to ask what the next bus stop is or listen carefully to the stops as they are announced by the driver. You can also ask the driver if he can let you know when your bus stop is next.
BODY
In Urdu, "What is the next stop?" is Agla parao kaun sa hai?
(slow) Agla parao kaun sa hai?
Agla parao kaun sa hai?
First, we have Agla, which means "next." Then we have parao, which is equivalent to the English word "stop." This is followed by kaun sa, meaning "which." Lastly, it’s hai which means “is”. Let's break it down by syllable.

When you’re on a bus in Pakistan, you might want to ask if your desired destination is the next stop. For example, let’s say you want to get off the bus at the Liberty Square. In Urdu, it’s called Liberty Chowk, and this is the historic market in Lahore. In Urdu, you can say...
Agla parao Liberty chowk hai?
It means "Is Liberty Square the next stop?" Let’s hear this once again.
(slow) Agla parao Liberty chowk hai?
Agla parao Liberty chowk hai?
First we have agla which is “next”. Then its parao meaning “stop”. Then you can add the name of your destination. In this case, it’s Liberty Chowk or “Liberty Square.” Then we have hai meaning “is.” Let’s hear the phrase once again.
