Greeting in Kashmiri

Here's a greeting in Kashmiri:

"As-salamu alaikum, kashmir!" (عَسْسلامُ ألاِکُم، كٔشْمِر)

Translated to English: "Peace be upon you, from Kashmir!"

The language is self-named as Koshur (كٲشُर).

Here's a fun fact: The Kashmiri language has no official status in Pakistan-administered Kashmir, despite being the native tongue of over 90% of the population.
