A new language has been born and it is called Pakistanian.
DC Comics have been mocked for suggesting Pakistani's speak 'Pakistanian in recent edition.
In a caption of one of their latest comics a group of shepherds in the Shimshal region of Pakistan are being menaced, until the superheroes show up.
But the dialogue is “all translated from Pakistanian”, apparently that is what Pakistani's speak. Understandably, Twitter had a field day.
Here's why @Marvel is winning over @DCComics - the latter thinks we speak Pakistanian. h/t @takhalus pic.twitter.com/xzvx8VccS1

Pakistan’s official national language is Urdu, though a huge number of people speak Punjabi in various dialects.
