[Glossary of Gurumukhi/Punjabi Words] It’s a great site with lots of rational people sharing in depth humanity. Best wishes John |

I request the non-punjabi sangat to let us know clearly, which words are not understood properly. We will try our best to update the glossary on as-needed basis. But do point that out. That s a great learning exp for us too, as we do more research in getting to exact expression of those unfamiliar words to you.
