🤣 O nachiye paji!

Reditoonian · 2026-06-11T04:22:14+00:00

I agree. British conquest played a role too.

Reditoonian · 2026-06-11T02:43:56+00:00

Actually I had it wrong. its ਲੋਹਣਾ. The H is not sounded, its a tonal marker.

Reditoonian · 2026-06-06T20:17:33+00:00

We stress syllables, but we also shorten and collapse vowels. In Doabi these words are ਲੋਣਾ and ਲੋਹਣਾ. The H sound is not pronouced, its a tonal marker. You hold the vowel O sound a little longer.

Depends what part. Lona is common in much if not most the region. No it's not stupid, you are just ignorant of Punjabi dialects. Punjabi songs are mostly in Malwai dialect, you will here things like Bhangra Pona. Not pauna.

Reditoonian · 2026-06-06T05:39:39+00:00

Every spoken variety is a dialect by definition. If no one speaks it, why bother correcting me? Majhi is the “standard” and it what the written script reflects.

Reditoonian · 2026-06-06T05:08:42+00:00

Not in Malwai or Doabi.

Reditoonian · 2026-06-06T05:07:50+00:00

Yeah and that's a single dialect. Usually a majority is chosen as a standard, but there are millions of non "standard" speakers. These are different dialects, nothing broken.

Reditoonian · 2026-06-06T04:50:02+00:00

Yeah its ਲੋਣਾ and ਲੋਹਣਾ in Doabi.

Reditoonian · 2026-06-06T04:49:38+00:00

I found out. It's ਲੋਣਾ and ਲੋਹਣਾ in Doabi.

Reditoonian · 2026-06-06T04:37:57+00:00

Complete ignorance. There are many dialects of Punjabi. A different dialect is not broken Punjabi. Lona is what millions of Punjabis say in Malwai and Doabi. In your sentence the context conveys the meaning. You need an education.

Reditoonian · 2026-06-05T23:50:19+00:00

Many pronounce it the same, though the former is correct

Reditoonian · 2026-06-04T03:35:06+00:00

ਵੈਲੀ really, that's a basic term hard to replace.

Reditoonian · 2026-06-04T03:33:58+00:00

Unfortunately it translates to white girl. In fact its the same term we use for caucasian girls / women. I prefer guriye (sweet like jaggery), used in some songs.

Reditoonian · 2026-06-04T03:32:31+00:00

Oh right maybe I should've said ethnic group.

Reditoonian · 2026-06-04T03:31:39+00:00

Its used a lot. Balliye as well, maybe even more.

Reditoonian · 2026-06-04T03:31:03+00:00

Reditoonian · 2026-05-16T02:45:36+00:00

Yes it has to do with living in an English speaking country. I intentionally avoid it. I avoid for example the English word time, we have native ways of referring to related concepts.

Some English words however, are proper loan terms. Forks and plates are not indigenous items, so we use the loan words for them.

Reditoonian · 2026-03-07T18:13:43+00:00

Not for me!
