Have to memorize this before I go to Gurmukhi camp in June. Don't want to go like an illiterate. So thank you for giving me a systematic list instead of the random pick of the day approach that I use.

Dear Tony Ji,

Just read it few times it does help.

Good night it is 12.09 AM now.

Many thanks for this excellent list. A very useful piece for everyone...and a useful reference fro me.

PS. You must be really tired...you have replied to AAd ji as "Tony" (as there is no message from Tony ji )

Yes Tony ji in this message is a reply to aad0002. The confusion comes about because aad0002 is Antonia or Toni (with an "i" for women) and forum member Tony ji is Anthony (with a "y" for men). But it is not unusual for people to use "y" regardless. It introduces yet another language influence as if things were not confusing enough. This happens all the time and no one takes offense. by aad0002

Thanks Dear Giani Ji-There was some where on the forum few words on it by her. Giani Ji I am still new to this forum and the technicalities some times are beyond me. But I am getting better at it.
