A video of a young girl from Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province has captivated social media users. Shared by Pakistani vlogger and doctor Zeeshan, the clip shows the girl speaking fluent English—a remarkable skill given that she has never attended school.
Shumaila, who sells peanuts, sunflower seeds, and other snacks in Lower Dir, shared in the video that she speaks six languages, crediting her multilingual abilities to her father, who knows 14 languages. “I don’t go to school; my father teaches me at home,” she stated confidently.
