[QUOTE="MJALLI, post: 219153, member: 19449"] Dear Swarn Bains jē, I admire your intelligence. I am not to that level. I know one thing that with my little knowledge, I can not make a universal statement that you have made "never touch a grammer based translation with ten foot pole" Wow! Let me however, give only one example to illustrate the importance of Gůrbȧnē grammer: ਅੰਤਰਿ - ạnt̪ǝrĕ and ਅੰਤਰ - ạnt̪ǝr are two different words. First one due to the use of ਿ -[B] [/B]Sĭhȧrē means "within" while the second one can mean - gap, difference, inside etc. depending upon how and where it is used. The second one can be a noun or an adjective while first one is an adverb. I can quote many other examples reinforcing the IMPORTANCE & SIGNIFICANCE of Gůrbȧnē grammer. You are a high level scholar and I am no match to your depth of knowledge. I know the importance of Gůrbȧnē grammer and have spent last four years dedicated solely to doing Transliteration of Sree Gůrū[B] [/B]Grạnth Sȧhĭb reflecting the grammar. I was pained when I noticed that all 9 published English translations missed to reflect the most vital part - grammar. So by the grace of sət̪ĕgůrū I was blessed with the initiative to embark upon this task. Gůrbȧnē is being, and will always be understood without or with grammar. Question is - if the reader has grasped the gist of it or understood the complete underlying message accurately. 2+2 = 4 is taught to a first grader and then there is an individual who may do a doctorate on the same numbers starting from explaining the origin of numbers etc. Depends how shallow or how deep one wants to go into the Gůrbȧnē. It is an ocean, one can float or dive. To dive deep understanding of grammar, in my opinion, is required. I have neither the time nor the inclination to raise controversy out of this. I am humbly addressing the point you raised. Beyond replying to your "universal statement" I will not make another post on this subject. Lastly, a line from Gůrbȧnē: ਕਾਹੇ ਕੀ ਕੁਸਲਾਤ ਹਾਥਿ ਦੀਪੁ ਕੂਏ ਪਰੈ ॥ ...... Figure out why there is a ਿ -[B] [/B]Sĭhȧrē on the word ਹਾਥਿ and an ੁ - ạůnkəŗ for ਦੀਪੁ ? You will then know the significance and importance of the Gůrbȧnē grammar. Hope you know the meaning of this line as well. Sincere apologies if I hurt your feelings. By the way, I am still learning the English as well as Gůrbȧnē grammar and may not start my translations for another six months or so unless I gain a good understanding of the grammar.
