Isn't there difference between the Saraiki spoken in Multan and RahimYar Khan?
You are right that different accents and dialects are spoken in different areas. Saraiki as spoken in Sindh contains many words of Sindhi and it seems that only pronouns, etc are Saraiki
re: Saraiki Words
^ many Punjabis in Rahimyar Khan therefore the accent could be a bit different.
re: Saraiki Words
Yep yep. Listening to some various Seraiki videos on youtube, some of them I understand perfectly. Others I can't understand hardly anything.
re: Saraiki Words
Saraiki and Sindhi is almost same only 20% difference or less.
Even people in Multan have different dialect compared to rest of the southern Punjab.
It makes me laugh the way people in Multan say
Hik waji khari hay — Means 1 Baj gaya hai.
and they call knife ------------> Chakku

re: Saraiki Words
Hmmm, we also have the word Chaku in Indian Punjabi. There’s a funny old boli that goes:
Baari barsin khatn geya si, te khat ke liyan da Chaku, bhangra pao mitra, hun nachan munde da bapu ![]()
Its same in Saraiki. both languages have many common words
Wesey Are there two types of siraiki languages? Like Sindhi siraiki and punjabi siraiki?

Yes, that's what I was thinking that there is Sindhi siraiki and punjbi siraiki.
