Learning Alfabet The Punjabi Way..

*
Say them out loud :)
------------------------------------
A is for Aiscreame

B is for Backside, and it has nothing to do with your butt. It is an
instruction to go to the rear of a building, or block, or shop or whatever.

C is for Cloney and its not a process for replicating sheep, nor is its
first name George. It is merely an area where people live e.g. 'Defence
Cloney'.

D is for the proverbial 'Dangar da Puttar'

E is for Expanditure, the spending of money

F is for Fackade, and even though it sounds like a bad word it is actually
just the front of a building

G is for Gaddi, and the way a Punjabi can pilot his gaddi puts any F1 driver
to shame.

H is for 'Ho Jayega Ji', and the moment you hear that you have to be careful
because you can be reasonably sure it's not going to happen.

I is for Intzaar, and to know more about it see P.

K is for Khanna, Khurana, etc, the Punjabi equivalent of the Joneses
(e.g.'Keeping up with the Khuranas ji')

M is for 'Mrooti', the car that an entire generation of Punjabis were in
love with.

O is for Oye, which can be surprise (Oyye!), a greeting (Oyy!), anger (OYY!)
or pain (Oy oy oy...).

P is for Punj Mint, and no matter how near (1 km) or far(100 km) a Punjabi
is from you he always says he'll reach you in punj mint (5 minutes...).

Q is for Queue, a word completely untranslatable into Punjabi - does not
exist in the culture.

R is for Riks, and a Punjabi is always prepared to take one (risk), even if
the odds are against him.

S is for Sweetie, Sunny, Simmi and Sonu, who seem to own half the cars in
Delhi .

T is for the official bird of Punjab : Tandoori Chickun.

V is for VIP phone numbers @ Rs 2 lakhs and counting.

W is for Whan, as in 'Whan are you coming, ji?'
