Users by language

آداب‎ (Adaab)! I'm an Urdu-Punjabi speaker who takes an interest in linguistics and phonology. I also have a keen interest in learning different scripts.

I mainly work on Urdu/Hindi and Punjabi lemmas on Wiktionary, but also semi-active on English, Urdu and Punjabi (Shahmukhi) Wikipedias.

Short-term goals

Punjabi language

1. To expand Punjabi lemmas
2. To also get my head around Punjabi tonal sounds

Urdu language

1. Expand Urdu lemmas
2. Improve and fix current list of Urdu lemmas

Long-term goals

• Create a Module:pa-IPA - similar to that of Module:ne-IPA, that includes not only the IPA, but also hyphenation, rhymes and phonetic transliteration etc, curated specifically towards Punjabi lemmas.
