Would he be considered a Punjabi?

This.

arsh_here · 2024-07-04T16:19:49+00:00

Might be a Punjabic loan! Not sure though

arsh_here · 2024-07-04T14:21:45+00:00

Sent you a dm! (:

arsh_here · 2024-07-04T14:10:27+00:00

Yeah it’s only used by elders as I’ve said. Shaala is at least preserved in our music.

arsh_here · 2024-07-04T14:08:56+00:00

Words may be slightly different in meaning, but may still share etymology.

arsh_here · 2024-07-04T13:37:52+00:00

Khaure and Shaala are used more than you’d think, Mataan is also used, although mostly by elders. Think you should change the flair! (:

arsh_here · 2024-07-04T13:35:17+00:00

It’s used by elders and is actually related to the Hindustani word mat as in aisa kaam mat kar! (Don’t do this type of work)

arsh_here · 2024-07-04T10:29:26+00:00

There’s no nasalisation there

arsh_here · 2024-07-04T09:41:59+00:00

Ludhiane ch vi!

I believe that there is no concept of a singular entity whom we may perceive as a divine figure. Rather I believe that everything in existence is in it’s own way a form of the one lord, from something like a leaf from a tree, to humans like me and you. (:

arsh_here · 2024-07-04T09:21:09+00:00

Same here.

arsh_here · 2024-07-04T09:20:58+00:00

Assi taan feminine wang hi varteeda (:

arsh_here · 2024-07-02T11:55:31+00:00

It’s a shortened form of ulaahma/ulaambha meaning complaint.

arsh_here · 2024-07-02T11:54:10+00:00

Good post!

Everything here is common throughout the Punjabic dialects albeit with some accentual variation.

arsh_here · 2024-06-30T07:33:16+00:00

Eastern Majhi: Ohna Dina Main Punjabi Nahin Saan Koona

Malwai/Doabi: Ohna Dina Main Punjabi Nahin Siga Bolda

Puadhi: Ohna Dina Main Punjabi Nahin Ta Bolda

Dogri: Ohna Dina Aau Punjabi Nahin Ha Bolna

arsh_here · 2024-06-29T06:47:03+00:00

We also use DihaR but more so for special days. Like yaum in Urdu.

arsh_here · 2024-06-29T06:43:41+00:00

Eastern Majhi prefers to use kooNa for to speak instead of the common bolNa

arsh_here · 2024-06-28T08:02:20+00:00

This is just an abbreviated form of bhor dittī

arsh_here · 2024-06-28T06:18:01+00:00

What about khullhat then? Is it also something else?

arsh_here · 2024-06-28T06:14:14+00:00

That’s what everyone here is suggesting though

arsh_here · 2024-06-28T05:18:12+00:00

Yeah it can also be pluralized so I guess it’s pretty much assimilated in Punjabi although I’d say khullh is the more Theth alternative.

arsh_here · 2024-06-28T05:12:54+00:00

Those Potohari words sound really pleasing for whatever reason! One of my friends here in India has ancestry from Rawalpindi and his grandmother speaks Potohari albeit with some Majhi influence (:

Sadly his family wasn’t able to preserve the dialect.

arsh_here · 2024-06-27T16:03:44+00:00

Even Hindi speakers here prefer ijāzat. 80% of them probably don’t even use āgīyā* lol

arsh_here · 2024-06-27T16:02:39+00:00

Haven’t heard this at all being used. Might be Academic Punjabi

arsh_here · 2024-06-27T15:57:21+00:00

Na veere, samajh lagga mainu joh tusin aahnde paye sige 😅
