Pinglish, anyone? The Problem with Punjabi English!

  • Summary

  • The English language, like any other, has been corrupted by many. If there is Hinglish - or Hindi English - there is most definitely Pinglish, or Punjabi English. Punjoo friends and I have often laughed at our parents’, grandparents’ and relatives’ use of this strange concoction of Punjabi English that we’ve all grown up with.

    Native languages or the mother tongue also make for a lot of confusion when you’re growing up and trying to master the other two languages that are compulsory to pass any exam in India - Hindi and English. It corrupts both, brings you red on marks on dictation and essay papers.
