Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a guide to the Punjabi language, a tongue spoken by the majority of the inhabitants of the Punjab region in India. While the region has long been subject to the rule of various conquerors, including the Mughals who favored the Urdu language, Punjabi has remained a vital and enduring force. The book notes that, despite the prominence of Urdu in schools and public settings, Punjabi is the language of homes and the common people. The author, recognizing the lack of accessible resources for learning Punjabi, aims to fill that gap. The book will help readers overcome the difficulties of mastering the language through a simplified grammar and a collection of reading extracts. These texts have been chosen to provide a varied and gradually increasing level of difficulty, making the learning process more engaging. The book draws on the author's personal experience living in Amritsar, the Sikh holy city, and his study under a Granthi, a learned teacher of the Sikh scriptures. The author also draws on the work of previous scholars and missionaries who have studied the language, acknowledging their valuable contributions. This book aims to bridge the gap between scholarly work on Punjabi and the needs of practical language learners, making it an essential resource for anyone seeking to understand this rich and vibrant tongue. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
