urdu/punjabi numbaz

lol, your not totally alone... theres bare people who dont know them

I myself only know them to like 20 :oops: soo im worse off than you.

I just insist on people speaking in english and they blow it off me being silly or awkward... lol relies never take me seriously... which has its certain advantages.

I think it was LilSis who said she can barely speak a few words of Urdu...

So you are not alone...

thats gud i cant even remeber the order they go in, end up goin round in circles 😃 . I knew them a while back when my mum told me them after i kept pesterin her evertime i forgot 😃 oh well i dont really say the days of the week in urdu just say them in english wiv a tep accent 😃 my mum and dad know wot i mean lol

its easier in arabic!

its day one, day 2, day 3, day 4, day 5, Jumu'ah, Day 7

incidentally 7 is sabt. very similar to sabbath, the jewish day of rest.

Arent the jewish scriptures written in arabic?? Or a derivation of arabic?

they are hebrew, are they not?

[quote="Admin"]they are hebrew, are they not?[/quote]

which is a derivation of arabic isnt it?

I knw one or the other is derived from the other as they were pretty much comonly used in around the same area.

monday is peer in good urdu and sawmwaar in urdu/ punjabi.

I dnt knw my numbers properly, but after going to pak last yr I learnt em, I can work out what number they talking about but coming up with em myself takes me a lil while.

10- das

20- bees

30- tees

40- chaalees

50- pachaas

60- saat

70- sattar

80- assi

90- navey

100- so

then u can work out what they on abt eg batees is 32, pentees is 35, pentalees is 45, pensat is 65 etc.

So I KNW MORE than naj.

i know up to 22 and then some of the 30's 40's. 50's 100, 1000 etc

i once for a lnog time only knew upto 12

Worst thing is when little old ladies ask you what the price of something is.

I used to say for 59p, 5 and 9.

But now I just round up or down to the nearest number I know.

I know all my numbers to 100! and then the 1000s etc...i learnt em when i was younger, mum taught me, its kinda like a poem coz they are all in a rythm and once u get the hang of its really easy!

as for the days instead of hafta and atwaar my mum lot say waar and taar! i think maybe its a mirpuri thing

interesting

do MP's have diffrent names for days? what about numbers? what about every word in the book? cant understand a thing!

the thread says 'urdu/punjabi' numbers.........is there a diffrence?

not dissin MP's btw.........outt interest, am i the only non-mirpuri pakistani/kashmiri here?

i think we mirpuris take a bit of of urdu and a bit of punjabi ( i mean lahori punjabi), twist it a little bit (add some masala as well) and then come up with our own version. Although we speak mirpuri, the written language is still urdu i think.....its just another dialect or a slang version of punjabi

and yes i think u are the only non mirpuri or kashmiri here....so watch what u say :evil: lol

:shock: :shock:

....theyre takin over......

they took over a LONG time ago, but u were unaware.

muahahahaha

[quote="hijaban"]

whats the urdu months?[/quote]

Same as in English for the Gregorian calendar.

Same as in Arabic for the Islamic calendar.

only they add the extra umph to it

i.e December is pronounced as Du-cem-burr

Got to agree wiv you there, i thought it was just my family that spoke like that lol, me asian mates use to [b]get drunk[/b] of the way i use to speak in college coz they spoke really posh urdu (well i think it was 😃 )

[b]Hey Hey Naz, I know Ramadan is over, but french still isnt allowed as long as im around! -------- NewModOnTheBlock[/b]

Hey Naz i no wat u mean, but we should be proud of wat we have inherited (even if it is a slightly messed up language system!)

i dont think urdu is posh at all....i know its sounds more polite than punjabi and u know like MP'ns

like we say AAP and u ppl say TU or tusan...sounds disrespectful especially to elders.

but i'd rather know punjabi coz its weird being the only ones being urdu speakers in de whole generation, actually it sounds kiddie fyde to me, when u get 4/5 year olds speaking fluent punjabi.

yes i think u r dear

we iz all loud n proud: Pakistani Mirpuri's 😃

not really sure what i speak

its that messed up lol

i think its a bit of everything 😃

thats why i try to avoid any long complicated conversations with aunties/uncles/cousins etc

especially wiv ma mates, who all speak fantastic urdu/punjabi, kind of embarassing when urs is gibberish compared to them :oops:

no the basics like yes and no, but anything more advanced gets a bit complicated 😃

mirpuri is beautiful languange

but the most beautiful lang i heard is suraiqi.... man thats amazing.. so poetic
