re: Saraiki Words
Anyone know Seraiki well enough to help produce resources for the Language? I've tried looking for ways to learn Seraiki/Multani before and every time I come up with nothing. So I thought, why not learn from someone and as I learn, I'll produce resources (online) to help others learn (for free as well)
For the time being, I've been using an old Multani Grammar from British Raj days, which is helpful for old sayings, but not for much else. If anyone knows of any good TV Dramas I can watch, that might help.
Let's see how my book has been teaching me...
Instead of Assi and Tussi ("You" in Punjabi) Seraiki uses Assan and Tussan.
Kia na heve=What is your name?
In Punjabi: Karna=to do, In Sindhi: Karanu=to do, In Seraiki: Karan=to do.
Chhohur: Boy, Chhohar: Boys
Hanjh: Tear, Hanjhu: Tears
Ratta: Red
Dingga: Crooked
Seraiki Ginti:
1: Hekk/Hikk
2: du
3: trae
4: char
5: panj
6: chhe/chhi
7: satt
8: atth
9: no
10: dah
U ja te suttum: I slept there
uku mareum: I beat him
matta nazar awim: perhaps he may appear to me.
I can post (and hopefully discuss) more if anyone is interested

Wanj is Sindhi word 
re: Saraiki Words
Its same in Saraiki. both languages have many common words
re: Saraiki Words
Yep. If you look at a map of Punjab, you'll see that in the center, we have Majhi, which is spoken in places like Amritsar, Lahore. To the south west, we find Multani/Seraiki which as you go further south into Sindh, becomes more and more like Sindhi obviously, and to the west, more like Bilochi and to the east, more like Hindi (close to Rajasthan in India)
re: Saraiki Words
^ yes, listen to saraiki channels like Wasaeb tv, Rohi tv for correct accent. I am sorry but I can't provide u any links for learning it, I guess one takes that for granted when it's a native/ mother tongue and doesn't come to know of ways to learn it academically .
re: Saraiki Words
The saraiki spoken in mianwali is a lot different than the one spoken in Sindh?
