So I’m Punjabi from both sides, but the thing is, my Urdu is better than my Punjabi. It’s sad, I know, but even my cousins living in Pakistan use Urdu in their daily lives as opposed to Punjabi, the language their own parents grew up speaking. My parents think it’s more important to learn Urdu than Punjabi, which I never really understood. All of the adults in my family all speak in Punjabi with one another, but all their kids have been taught Urdu. I can understand basic Punjabi and maybe speak it if I tried (…to make a total idiot out of myself), but there’s many words that I don’t catch on to and phrases and things I wouldn’t understand. Ofcourse, my Punjabi cousin’s Urdu is different than my Karachi-walay cousin’s Urdu.

So I was talking with my cousin a few days ago about this and she mentioned that Punjabi isn’t considered a very “decent” language. That takes the piss. It’s supposed to be our mother language and now it’s just completely looked down upon. What a shame.

Why are kids in the family (not just mine) being taught Urdu, rather than Punjabi (since that’s the language their parents grew up speaking), and why is Punjabi starting to be so “looked down upon”?
