Punjabi Idioms: An idiom is kind of figurative
language that makes speaking and reading more
fun. The words do not have the literal meaning, but
they imply a meaning. For example, in this reading

you will read an idiom cwr cMn lwauxw. Literally it
would mean to add four moons. Moon is considered
a sign of beauty. A person who is very beautiful,

people say cMn vrgw or cMn vrgI. So cwr cMn lwauxw means ‘to beautify
something’. ies Gr nUM b~qIAW nwl cwr cMn l~g gey[

Grammar Point: Interjections and Exclamations: These are words we use to
express strong emotions. When you feel impressed by something, you say, “Wow!
That’s awesome” or if you get hurt, you say, “Ouch!” When you use just one word
to express your emotion, it is an interjection. When you use more than one word, it

becomes an exclamation. There are many exclamations and interjections in
Punjabi. “kI kihxy!” is an exclamation that means ‘beautiful and amazing’.

Other exclamations are, “vwh jI vwh!, “E b~ly, b~ly”, “auh qyrI!” “qyrw Blw
hovy!” Other interjections are “vwh!”, “ik~dW?” “AYvyN?”, “hw hwey!” etc.
