Thanx in advance | i've never heard of any difference... is there a difference between Gurdwara and Gurudwara?
is there a difference in the spelling when written in gurmukhi, or is it a matter of transliteration? |

| | | | | Re: Gurubani & Gurubani Some grammar... Gur is the oblique form of Guru, and the oblique is also used as possessive, so Gurbani means Guru's bani. Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/showthread.php?t=20073
So the correct way to write it is Gurbani, not Gurubani.
Hope this made some sense. |

It is Gurbani -- and Sara has given the linguistic explanation for this. Why not post an example of where you saw this with the surrounding context so we can take a look and see what might be going on? I sounds to me as if someone did not understand the idea of the oblique form as Sara explained.

I had a second thought. The person may be trying to say Guru's Bania -- but unsure of the 's rule. This is very hard when learning English. |
