Panjâbî
see also: Etymology of Panjâbî
The panjâbî (or penjâbî ; local name: ਪੰਜਾਬੀ / pañjābī or پنجابی / panjābī ) is a Indo-European language branch of the Indo-Iranian Langues spoken with the Penjab, in India and with the Pakistan, by approximately 100 million speakers (all confused dialects; this number can be quite lower if one excludes certain dialects from them); it is resulting from Prâkrit S, like the Hindî, while being more antiquated, therefore irregular, than this one. It uses mainly the Semi-spelling-book Gurmukhî for its writing, as well as the Devanâgarî or the Arabic alphabet in its alternative Persian. It would be, with the Hindî, the language-mother of the Rromani, the language of the Tziganes. The panjâbî is a language with Pitch, with the manner of the Sanskrit formerly, functioning with three intonations. It is one of the rare modern Indo-Aryan languages of this type.
