Intermediate Punjabi I · Language Resource Center
Punjabi speaking and writing skills. Cultural exploration.
I advanced my Punjabi reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills. I learned new vocabulary, and grammar. I also learned more about Punjabi culture and the Sikh religion.
I learned a lot about grammar, vocabulary, sentence structures and Punjabi culture.
Overall, I would recommend this course to another student especially if they grew up in a Punjabi household or Punjabi-speaking household. Most of the content is geared towards heritage speakers, so while I would still recommend the course for non-heritage speakers, I would let them know that they may need to do some additional work.
Great class, great professor, lots of fun and you learn a lot! 1 Columbia University: Arts & Sciences Fall 2023 Course: PUNJUN2101_001_2023_3-INTERMEDIATEPUNJABII : PUNJUN2101_001_2023_3 - INTERMEDIATE PUNJABI I Instructor: Sandeep Chohan
