1. This little book, even though only 48 pages, is a great little introduction for someone studying Hindi that wants some exposure to Punjabi, or for someone with a general interest in learning some basics in Punjabi. One can learn the alphabet in here as well as many basic vocabulary words and some basic sentence strucutre...I would definitely recommend this one along with the other 2 books in the series. Each one builds on the previous one. You really get alot for such a small book. And what a cheap price it's worth the small investment for sure. :) I have been studying Hindi for a while now and definitely want to tackle this eventually...certainly sparked my interest on the firt run-through of the book :)

1. i bought it for a friend that speaks punjabi and learning english. its good either way. super thick book.



2. I use this as a supplement to a college Punjabi course and it works well for me, helping me to work with the material learned in class and allowing me to get a firmer grip on the language.



3. A good place to start, but not the most extensive reference. The University dictionary is better.



4. This book could be a good reference for someone who is more advanced in the Punjabi language. Simply look up the Punjabi word and learn what it means in English quite easily and quickly. I did not find the colloquial expressions the back cover says it has. The book is divided into two parts, one half is the Punjabi to English dictionary and the second half is English to Punjabi but written in Gurmukhi.
   
   If you know the English word and wanted to learn the Punjabi equivalent, well, this book is definitely not helpful unless you can read Gurmukhi. For me, a beginner, I found the book did not serve my purpose, and was not what I expected. I did buy this online, and the seller highly recommended this as the best book for any first timer who wanted to learn the basics. It is a thick, heavy book and not easy to carry around. I will probably give it away and search for a dictionary or reference book that is written entirely in English.
   
   I think the book, which really is a dictionary, is an aid for the Punjabi speaker. I did find 'Learn Punjabi in 30 Days' taught me a good number of phrases and useful expressions set up in a simple method. That was a great start for me.



5. I read the Gurmukhi script and finding a word in Panjabi was really easy, but I found that the balance was not good: 11,000 words from Panjabi to English, and 14,000 from English to Panjabi.
   
   I couldn't do the translating assignments my teacher was giving me. I was missing a translation for 30% of the Panjabi words ... He strongly recommended the Patiala University Dictionary and I bought it online the same day I returned this one to Amazon ...
