English Punjabi Dictionary

Punjabi is a Indo-Aryan language. It is the native language of about 130 million people, and is the 10th most spoken language in the world. Most of the people who speak this language live in the Punjab region of Pakistan and India. It is also widely spoken in Haryana, Himachal Pradesh and Delhi. It is natively spoken by the majority of the population of Pakistan.

Punjabi developed from the ancient language of Sanskrit just like many other modern Indo-Aryan languages. Punjabi is unusual among this group for being a tonal language.

Punjabi is written in two different scripts, called Gurmukhi and Shahmukhi. This book uses the Gurmukhi script.

This book contains 2500 terms in English and Punjabi. Each term includes the part of speech and the Punjabi term along with its transliteration in the Roman alphabet. A brief definition helps to clarify the term along with sample usage in Punjabi. An index in Punjabi and transliteration is also included.
