ਸੰਪਾਦਕੀ ਸੁਰ

An editorial speaks for a paper, so it uses ਅਸੀਂ rather than ਮੈਂ and asks institutions to act: ਸਰਕਾਰ ਨੂੰ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ ਕਿ, ਪ੍ਰਸ਼ਾਸਨ ਤੋਂ ਮੰਗ ਹੈ ਕਿ. The demand stays firm and the tone stays impersonal — the argument, not the writer, is doing the talking.

Dialogue. Read it aloud twice — once for each speaker.

Practice (12). Answer first, then open the answer.

What this Punjabi practice tests. Punjabi. Every exercise works on Gurmukhi, three tones written by ਘ ਝ ਢ ਧ ਭ and the ਹ series, three-way address (ਤੂੰ / ਤੁਸੀਂ / ਤੁਸੀਂ ਜੀ), the ergative ਨੇ in the perfective, verb-final order, and the analytical future (-ਆਂਗਾ/-ੇਗਾ).

Recall drills — 42 more questions from the C1 words

These 42 drills are generated from the Punjabi C1 vocabulary list — the words of “Advanced stance and structure” through “Precision, rhetoric, and genre”, in both directions: recognition (word → meaning) and production (meaning → word). They re-ask what the course data already contains; no answer here was written by a machine, and a generated drill is practice, never a lesson.

The C1 test — 10 items

The 10-item test closes Punjabi C1. Answers are shown; in the course player the same test decides whether Punjabi C2 unlocks.

Punjabi C1 beyond the drills — culture, reading, listening, idioms

These sections are written for Punjabi C1 specifically. The reading text is EkGuru's own; the culture note cites where its facts come from; the idioms and the mistakes list are the ones this level actually trips over.

Culture note

Punjabi literature runs from Baba Farid's verses in the Guru Granth Sahib through Bulleh Shah's kafis and Waris Shah's ਲੋਕ ਕਥਾ of Heer, to the twentieth century, where Amrita Pritam's poem on the partition of 1947 became the language's most quoted modern text. The literary language is written in two scripts — Gurmukhi in the east, Shahmukhi in the west — so the same poem often exists in two alphabets, and a reader in Amritsar and a reader in Lahore can share one line without sharing a page.

Source (named, not linked): en.wikipedia.org, the article “Punjabi literature”.

Reading — read this aloud, slowly

What it says: In the tradition of Punjabi literature, Bulleh Shah's kafi and Waris Shah's Heer are two great pillars. Bulleh Shah asked spiritual questions in plain speech, and Waris Shah turned a love story into a mirror of the society of his time. In the twentieth century Amrita Pritam's poetry joined that same tradition to the pain of partition. Critics hold that the strength of these works lies in their language, not only in their subject.

Listening — one voice, one text

Use the speaker button to hear this text with a browser voice tagged pa-IN; playback starts only after a click. If no matching voice is installed, read it aloud yourself — the rhythm is the point.

What it says: Editor: What is your standpoint on Heer? Critic: In my view it is not a love story, it is a mirror of society. Editor: Do you see any weakness too? Critic: Yes, in some parts the narrative slackens. Editor: That point should come into the writing as well, but with evidence.

10 idioms and fixed phrases

The 3 mistakes this level makes

• ਮੇਰੇ ਖਿਆਲ ਵਿੱਚ ਕਿ ਇਹ ਠੀਕ ਹੈ। → ਮੇਰੇ ਖਿਆਲ ਵਿੱਚ ਇਹ ਠੀਕ ਹੈ। ਵਿੱਚ already carries the opinion — the complementiser ਕਿ is not added after it.
• ਉਹ ਕਹਿੰਦਾ ਕਿ ਇਹ ਸੱਚ ਹੈ। → ਉਹ ਕਹਿੰਦਾ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਇਹ ਸੱਚ ਹੈ। The reporting verb needs its ਹੈ before ਕਿ introduces the clause.
• ਲੇਖਕ ਨੇ ਲਿਖਿਆ ਕਿ ਹਰ ਇਨਸਾਨ ਦੀ ਆਪਣੀ ਰਾਏ ਹੋਣੀ ਚਾਹੀਦੀ। → ਲੇਖਕ ਨੇ ਲਿਖਿਆ ਕਿ ਹਰ ਇਨਸਾਨ ਦੀ ਆਪਣੀ ਰਾਏ ਹੋਣੀ ਚਾਹੀਦੀ ਹੈ। ਚਾਹੀਦੀ/ਚਾਹੀਦਾ keeps its ਹੈ at the end of the clause.

Your task

Write a Punjabi review of one poem in four short paragraphs Choose one kafi, one folk narrative or one modern poem. In four paragraphs: name the poet and the period, state your ਦ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਟੀਕੋਣ in one sentence, quote two lines with the page or the section you took them from, and finish with one ਕਮੀ and one strength. No claim without ਲਿਖਤ ਦਾ ਸਬੂਤ.

After C1: the C1+ checkpoint

C1+ is not a certificate — it is the half-step between Punjabi C1 and the next level, and it is on this site’s ladder because language schools use it. You are at C1+ when you can write for work, translate, teach a beginner. Get there by working the recall drills above and the review deck until nothing on this page surprises you, then open the C2 pages.
