   List of Tamil words in Jatki - western Panjabi language 

                                                by  

              Dr. Variankaval Ramasamy Annadurai; MD; DPM;

 

 

The Western Panjabi or Jatki language has many local names applied to it, Multani, Derawal, Jagdalli, Shahpuri Bannchi, Pashawari, PothoMri, Hazari, Bahawalpuri are all names of dialects of the language, which is spoken by the J'afir Pathans and Khetrans on the West of the Derd Grhazi Khan district to Bhawalpnr on the East and from Sindh in the South to the confines of Kashmir in the North, covering an area about the size of Ireland and with a population variously estimated at from three to five millions, the latter is probably near if not under the actual number. There seem to be three well defined dialects.

(1) Southern Punjabi, including Multani, Derawal, Bahawalpuri spoken from Sindh to the Deri Ishmael Khin district.

(2) The Salt Bange Dialect, called in Bhai Maya Singh’s Dictionary Pothohari spoken in Rawalpindi, Jhelum, Shahpur, Gujrat and Salt Range.

(3) The Hazara Dialect.

Each district seems to have its own local name for the language, which has dialectical differences of pronunciation, meaning or idiom varying more or less every few miles, or even in different quarters of the same city. This is more or less the case with every unwritten language.
