Writing Pashto is not a difficult task if one knows about its alphabets. There are a few alphabets which differ that from Urdu. for example in Urdu we use
گ and in pashto it is ګ . Unlike Urdu Pashto have some other alphabets of its own which are obvious in the following chart:
The pashto Alphabetes are totaly 44 alphabetes and its fonts are of arabic style and could be read and written from the right side to to left as arabic.د پښتو ابېڅې (الفبا) پدې ډول دي .
The Pashto Alphabetes are as this :
ا ، ب ، پ ، ت ، ټ ، ث ، ج ، چ ، ځ ، څ ، ح ، خ ، د ، ډ ، ذ ، ر ، ز ، ژ ، ږ ، ړ ، س ، ش ، ښ ، ص ، ض ، ط ، ظ ، ع ، غ ، ف ، ق ، ک ، ګ ، ل ، م ، ن ، ڼ ، ه ، و ، ی ، ئ ، ې ، ي ، ۍ .Alef ; Bay ; Pay ; Thay; TTay (hard sound) ; Ce (SAY) ; Jeem ; Che (Chay) ; Dze (ZZay); Tse (tssy); Hhay ; Khay (xche); Daal; Ddaal (hard sound) ; Zaal ; Ray; Zay ; Zhay (a sound which is found in french and you combine your teeth and your toungue’s middle part meet the upper jaw ); Gay ; Rray (hard sound , found in Indian language its sound comes from when you take your toungue’s peak turn it towards back side of you upper jaw) ; Cin (Seen) ; Sheen ; Xeen( Kheen; a sound which comes when you press or bite the right and left sides of your toungue ); Swath (Swat) ; Dwath (Dwat); Thoi (Toi) ; Zoi ; Aiyn (Ayn) ( an arabic sound comming out from a throut) ; Ghain(Ghayn) (an arabic sound comes from open mouth without touch you tongue (sound of crow) ); Fay; Qqaaf (an arabic soun pushing your back part of toungue backwards and making sound) ; Kaaf; Gaaf(Gaph); Laam; Meem; Noon ; Noorn(its original pashto sound , you can make it by first joining your toungue’s peake with upper jaw and at last turning your toungue ’s peak backward) ; Hay; Wow; Yea ; Aie ; Ay; E ; Ei (french sound e with an apostrof on head).

Joining the alphabetes to make a word.
Alef +Cin(seen)+Laam+Alef+Meem ( its important to think about the sounds not about the names written structure) for example (A)+(H)+(M)+(E)+(D)
Now from that form of the combination we get a word (AHMED) .
SO its important to thik about the sounds more here to not become confuse.
Now start with Pashto alphabetes and join them making the words.

Cin(seen)+Laam+Alef+Meem
( س+ ل + ا+ م )
SALAM ( Hello/Hei ) = سلام
Zay +(MEEM) + (WOW ) + (NOON) + (GAAF) = (ZAMONG) = (زمونږ) (OUR'S)

Now you can continue making words from the following alphabetes:

ا ، ب ، پ ، ت ، ټ ، ث ، ج ، چ ، ځ ، څ ، ح ، خ ، د ، ډ ، ذ ، ر ، ز ، ژ ، ږ ، ړ ، س ، ش ، ښ ، ص ، ض ، ط ، ظ ، ع ، غ ، ف ، ق ، ک ، ګ ، ل ، م ، ن ، ڼ ، ه ، و ، ی ، ئ ، ې ، ي ، ۍ .
