This conversational Punjabi book is an invaluable tool for students to enhance their idiomatic and colloquial vocabulary. The dialogues include a diverse array of situations that give learners a much better sense of customs, relationships, and occurrences in everyday life. Being exposed to the rich cultural contexts in which Punjabi is spoken is crucial for deeper and more meaningful understanding of the language. This set of conversations provides a truly enriching way to get such exposure.

The Punjabi conversational book is an up-to-date, rich and precious tool for Punjabi learners. It offers a wide range of vocabulary related to different contexts, from historical and cultural to day-to-day situations. The presentation of texts followed by a list of key words and expressions along with a small set of exercises gives students the possibility of establishing a strong grammatical foundation and acquiring linguistic reflexes in Punjabi. It provides an excellent grounding in skills of listening, reading, writing and speaking. I found it extremely useful in broadening my language skills in Punjabi, particularly as good grammar books in this language are quite scarce.

The conversational book was sincerely helpful for me because I not only learned prominent vocabulary, but I also learned in which context to apply it. The book has several readings that provide common Punjabi phrases that are used in everyday language. The Punjabi conversational book is truly a must have for learning Punjabi.

I learned a lot of new things about Punjabi customs and traditions that I never knew about. My favorite topic was learning about the festivals because my parents and I celebrate a lot of Punjabi festivals but I didn’t know the significance behind the events and why we celebrate them.
