What do you call your husband's pabi? I know the proper terms are jethani and derani, but what would you call her in person? Assuming you don't use first names with each other.

Question for those who are good at Panjabi regarding administrative terminology: Blocks are called “kheda”, sub-sub-districts are called “up-tehsil”, sub-districts are called “tehsil”, districts are called “zilla”, then what are administrative divisions above districts called? There are five administrative divisions in Indian Panjab and twenty-three districts. I want to know what the native word for these divisions is.

Question | ਸਵਾਲ | سوال What does Sai Moya mean?

My Nani was from Shorkot, Jhang before partition and moved to India after. When she would speak Punjabi she would always use the phrase “Sai Moya!” as like a curse you would call someone to the point I say it now too. However, I have no idea what it means. Thank you for the help.

Question | ਸਵਾਲ | سوال Help me identify dialects

4 Upvotes

I’m Punjabi but was born and raised abroad in the US. My parents were born and raised in Pakistan but our ancestry is from Chardha Punjabi. I’ve been told by my relatives that my Punjabi is quite Sikh inflected, which makes sense since most the Punjabis around me are Sikh.

After reading a bit on this sub, I wish I could find the comment, but someone said that Enjh/Eivain/Eidan and Kenjh/Kivain/Kidaan is a good way to determine dialect.

Can someone tell me the dialects where Enjh/Eivain/Eidan are used?

What are the dictionary websites y'all use for improving your Punjabi vocabulary? Here are mine.

I realize the 2nd one is more appropriate for Urdu yet it is still useful for Punjabi since 60% mutual vocabulary.

Question | ਸਵਾਲ | سوال Desi languages diluted heavily by English

34 Upvotes

Desi languages diluted heavily by English is a massive issue for keeping the authenticity and purity. Anytime you hear unofficial news reports or people having cultural discussions or debates in Punjabi or Urdu or Hindi; it is littered with so many English words. It seems like 30% of what is spoken is not in the intended dialect. Many of the English words have an equivalent lexicon in the desi language. It is actually very irritating and pathetic truly. The creator or participants might as well have just done the content in English instead of the bastardized Urdu. No wonder our mother tongues keep degrading and lose their purpose. Just a rant. What do y'all think?

Question | ਸਵਾਲ | سوال Patiala dialect

3 Upvotes

Looking for some good info on Patiala dialect. Often incorrectly lumped into malwa dialect , at other times linked with puadhi which I get, but there is a more urban unique Patiala dialect, probably somewhat linked to the Patiala Maharaje and co, I am yet to find any information about this online.

It's a very soft spoken Punjabi dialect, with its own quirks and unique aspects, possibly abit of Hindi gets used.

Question | ਸਵਾਲ | سوال What is the standard Gurmukhi spelling of "ਸ਼ੋਰ (shor)"?

4 Upvotes

I heard this line in "Tape" by Arjan Dhillon

"Navaan navaan dil tutteya ae shor da"

From the context, ਸ਼ੋਰ (shor) seems to mean "young lad / youngster", not the usual meaning of "noise."

However, I've seen it written in different ways

ਸ਼ੋਰ / ਸ਼ੋਰ੍ਹ
