About this listen

A young girl wishes to participate in the art of kite fighting in basant, the Pakistani spring celebration. She wants to yell out "bo kata!" when cutting an opponent's kite string. Boys prepare for this kite festival in Pakistan by learning to be "still and strong" in order to control the kites. Can she do it too?
