Have Fun With Panjabi: Introducing Mother Tongue to Children

Teach children to speak Panjabi with this easy to follow book. Have Fun with Panjabi is based on a simple ‘say what you see’ concept. The same sounds that are used in everyday English are used to pronounce the Panjabi words shown in the book. Book one contains chapters on colours, counting, fruit, vegetables, drinks and days of the week. There is also a chapter testing what the child has learnt, enabling them to say short describing sentences. As with any language pronunciation is key, hence the ‘Have Fun With - ’ series encourages parents to be involved with the child in the learning. Panjabi originates from the north of India, and like every language around the world is spoken with a different accent, depending on locality. For example, Birmingham English accent differs from London English accent, as with Ludhiana Panjabi is different to Jalandhar Panjabi.
