THakur..is the THatthha ( letter after Tainka) Line 4 of alphabet..as in Pi TH..(Back)
THree..is the Thathha..letter after the "t: Line 5 of alphabet...as in Pa THar (stone) Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/learn-punjabi/26627-punjabi-kinship-terms-who-your-relatives.html
SO ENGLISH alphabet really is NOT Helpful in PUNJABI at all...after all ENGLISH cant even take care of its OWN...as we know..."Know" is NOh...and Knife is Nife...Bough is not same as Rough...Tough..Cough !!....and hundreds of similar words..so what chance of it saying/writing Punjabi wright..ha ha RIGHT !!tight..sight..fight..and then comes..HEIght (not Hight)  THATS the reason why Guru ji USED the Gurmukhi Alphabet... | | The following member appreciates Gyani Jarnail Singh Ji for the above message. | |

Especially in search engines and on YouTube. English phonetics are a mess for sure! Thanks for indicated where the sounds ae fronted and backed in the mouth, because that is the reason for the "slight" difference in sounding it out. |
