Pashto practice topics and interpretation examples

Language rules for Pashto CCL

The Pashto entry refers to General Policies A and B. The language used in the Pashto CCL test is also referred to as Southern Pashto, an official national language of Afghanistan.

General Policy A requires candidates to understand regional variation within the language, with allowances made by markers. General Policy B permits limited English borrowing where it is part of the language's norms and conventions and is regularly and commonly understood by its speakers in Australia, even when an alternative word exists.

Details to check: dates, numbers and respectful address

These examples show specific mistakes to avoid in our practice material. They are not a ranking of candidate errors or extra NAATI rules. Keep the timing, amounts and social meaning of the original, including polite requests and forms of address.

Dates and times: retain next Thursday and the follow-up location

Example · Angina Symptoms and Lifestyle Advice · segment 12

ډیره مننه ډاکټره صاحبه. زه به دا ټول شان تعقیب کړم، او بیرته به راشم د بیا کتنې لپاره په راتلونکي پنجشنبه ورځ کې د بلیک ټاون روغتون ته.

Model answer

Thank you very much, Doctor. I'll follow all of this advice, and I'll come back to Blacktown Hospital for a follow-up next Thursday.

Easy to miss: Keep both the follow-up day, next Thursday, and the location, Blacktown Hospital.

Numbers and amounts: keep the approximate price and optional cheaper alternative

Example · Recruitment Agent Briefs Job Seeker on Warehouse Role · segment 11

That's fine — Bunnings sells suitable gloves for a few dollars, or you could try Kmart if you'd prefer something cheaper.

Model answer

سمه ده، بنینګز مناسبې دستکشې په څو ډالرو پلوري، یا که ارزانه دستکشې غواړئ، په کې‌مارټ کې یې هم کتلای شئ.

Easy to miss: A few dollars is approximate, and Kmart is an optional alternative.

Address and relationships: distinguish the mother's involvement from the family's support

Example · Supporting a Teenager Through Anorexia Nervosa Treatment · segment 8

ښه، او ایا زه به هم په دې درملنه کې برخه واخلم؟ موږ ټول کورنۍ غواړو چې د هغې لپاره هرڅه وکړو.

Model answer

All right, and will I also be involved in this treatment? Our whole family wants to do everything we can for her.

Easy to miss: Keep the mother's question about her own involvement distinct from the whole family's willingness to help.

Doctor

Mrs. Yousafzai, can you tell me when this chest tightness started and what makes it worse or better?

Patient

ډاکټره صاحبه، کله چې زه له زینو څخه پورته کیږم، زما سینه تنګیږي او درنه کیږي، خو کله چې څو دقیقې آرام وکړم، دا له منځه ځي. ایا دا خطرناکه ده؟

Doctor

This is angina, chest pain from reduced blood flow to your heart. It's not a heart attack right now, but untreated it can become dangerous, so we'll start treatment immediately.

Patient

مننه ډاکټره صاحبه. دا سپرې ولې ده او څنګه یې کاروم؟

Questions people ask

Which variety of Pashto should I use in the CCL test?

The Pashto CCL test is in the language also referred to as Southern Pashto.

How often is the Pashto CCL test held?

NAATI tests high-demand languages every month and the others at least 4 times a year, and bookings close 1 week before each session. As of 22 Oct 2026, 1:00 pm (Sydney time), NAATI lists 8 upcoming Pashto sessions, 8 of them with seats; the next one with seats is Wed 18 Nov 2026. The current list is at naaticcl.com/naati-ccl-test-dates/pashto: we check it every 2 hours, and NAATI updates its own list about once a day.

Is the NAATI CCL test available in Pashto?

Yes. Pashto is one of the languages NAATI tests for the CCL. Passing can support a claim for 5 points towards your skilled migration score. We currently publish 57 Pashto practice dialogues.

Do I need a NAATI CCL Pashto coaching class?

Not necessarily. naaticcl.com is a self-practice site, not a coaching class: you work through the 57 Pashto dialogues and 28 mock tests on your own, at exam speed, and the AI marks each segment for what you kept, left out, changed or added. A class adds a teacher who listens and corrects you; if you want one, see the Pashto CCL teachers and classes list on naaticcl.com. The score here is our estimate, not a NAATI result.

How many marks do I need to pass?

63 out of 90, and at least 29 on each of the two dialogues. Marks come off for information you leave out, add, or change, and for language quality. We mark against the same published categories; the score is our own model's estimate, not a NAATI result.

How much does the real Pashto CCL test cost?

AUD $814 (NAATI fees for 1 July 2026 – 30 June 2027), and you do not know the result until NAATI finalises it. That is the whole reason this site exists: know where you stand before you pay to sit it.

Can I wear headphones in the test?

No — no headsets, headphones or earphones of any kind. You use the computer's speakers and microphone. Older guides that tell you to wear wired headphones will get you caught out on the day. Only one screen is allowed at any time; your phone or tablet acts as the second camera.

Can I take notes?

Yes, with a pen and loose sheets of paper only. No typing of notes, and no electronic resources — dictionaries, web browsing, live captions or transcription — during the test.

What if I miss something — can I hear a segment again?

Yes. One repeated segment per dialogue is allowed without penalty. Further repeats incur mark deductions.

How long until I get my result, and how long is it valid?

NAATI's candidate instructions say results come by email within 4–6 weeks; they are issued individually as they are finalised, so two people who sat on the same day can hear back on different days. The result is valid for five years from the date of issue (three years if issued before 9 August 2022) and cannot be extended. You can apply to sit again six months before expiry, according to NAATI’s FAQ.

Is CCL still worth 5 migration points in Pashto?

Yes. Credentialed Community Language points remain in the 189, 190 and 491 points tests. CCL is not a professional interpreting credential — passing it does not qualify you to work as an interpreter.
