dalsingh101 Posted October 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2010 (edited) Lets talk about the word ਨਵਾ or ਨਵ. I'm reading an arth of Japji Sahib and it defines the above as 'all'. Wherever I look at online definitions of the word(s) I find either 'new' or 'nine'. Any brothers come across a concrete definition as 'all'? I'm all talking about the usage in this particular context: ਨਵਾ ਖੰਡਾ ਵਿਚਿ ਜਾਣੀਐ ਨਾਲਿ ਚਲੈ ਸਭੁ ਕੋਇ ॥ I had a pad arth as follows (based on Prof. Sahib Singh): ਨਵਾ -Nawa - meaning all of the ਖੰਡਾ -Khandaa -regions/creations/realms of creations/universes ਵਿਚਿ -Vehch(eh) -inside/ within ਨਵਾ ਖੰਡਾ ਵਿਚਿ -Nawa Khandaa -Vehch(eh)- throughout all the universes,realms,and throughout all of creation ਜਾਣੀਐ- Jaanee(a)ai -to be seen/to be known ਨਾਲਿ -Naal(i) -with /to be with.to join ਚਲੈ -Chalai -to go ਨਾਲਿ ਚਲੈ -Naal(i) Chalai -To follow as followers/to follow as devotees/to follow (idolize in a sense) as fans somewhat ਸਭੁ -Sab(u) -all/all of ਕੋਇ - Koa(e)eh - people/mankind/persons ਸਭੁ ਕੋਇ-Sab(u) Koa(e)eh-All of mankind/each and every person My crappy budhi is telling me it is 'nine realms', used as a metaphoric device to imply a wide area? I know the overall meaning changes little whatever word we interpret it with, but I just wanted to know semantically speaking.

dalsingh101 Posted October 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 (edited) I bet this is an easy one: Anyone tell me the equivalent English term for ਪੁਨਾ and ਪੁਨ as used in the attachment? Also how would you define ਕਰਤੱਵ? I have a few definitions but wondered if people could elaborate further, especially guys whose first language is Panjabi.

dalsingh101 Posted February 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 (edited) Okay. On the off chance: Anyone come across this compound word before? ਦ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਟੀ-ਕੋਣ Here it is in context: ਇਸ ਗੱਲ ਦਾ ਖਾਸ ਧਿਆਨ ਰੱਖਿਆ ਗਿਆ ਹੈ ਕਿ ‘ਬੋਲੀ’ ਦੇ ਦ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਟੀ-ਕੋਣ ਤੋਂ ਵਿਦਿਆਰਥੀ ਹਰੇਕ ਮੁਸ਼ਕਲ ਲਫਜ਼ ਤੇ ਉਸ ਵਿਚ ਦੱਸੇ ਭਾਵ ਨੂੰ ਠੀਕ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਸਮਝ ਸਕੇ। Help appreciated.

chatanga1 Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 ਦ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਟੀ-ਕੋਣ in the context of the sentence it seems like it means dictionary. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsingh101 Posted February 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 in the context of the sentence it seems like it means dictionary. Not sure about that. Literally it seems to translate along the lines of 'spiritual angle'??? Here is another contextual usage: ਇਸ ਔਖਿਆਈ ਨੂੰ ਦੂਰ ਕਰਨ ਲਈ ਕੁੱਝ ਟੀਕੇ ਜਾ ਚੁੱਕੇ ਹਨ, ਪਰ ਖੋਜ ਕੇ ਪੜ੍ਹਨ ਵਾਲੇ ਵਿਦਿਆਰਥੀ ਦੇ ਦ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਟੀ-ਕੋਣ ਤੋਂ ਉਹ ਤਸੱਲੀ ਬਖਸ਼ ਸਾਬਤ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੋਏ। It seems to go along the lines of[??]: To remove these difficulties some commentaries (teekas) have been produced, but the ਦ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਟੀ-ਕੋਣ of the students who have studied, have not been blessed with firm conviction. Where's a desi brother when you need him? lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalsingh101 Posted February 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Colloquial term: ਸਿਰੇ ਚੜ੍ਹਦਾ ਜ਼ੁਬਾਨੀ ਯਾਦ ਹੋਣ ਤੇ ਭੀ ਜੇ ਇਸਦਾ ਪਾਠ ਕਰਨ ਵੇਲੇ ਸੁਰਤ ਹੋਰ ਪਾਸੇ ਖਿੰਡ ਜਾਏ ਤਾ ਪਾਠ ਘੱਟ ਹੀ ਸਿਰੇ ਚੜ੍ਹਦਾ ਹੈ, ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਇਕੋ ਲਫਜ਼ ਦੇ ਕਈ ਵਾਰੀ ਆਉਣ ਕਰਕੇ ਪਾਠ ਅਗਾਂਹ ਪਿਛਾਂਹ ਹੋ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ। When I checked a dictionary I got the following: ਸਿਰ ਚੜ੍ਹਨਾ - to be overbearing; to go to one's head Still makes no sense, especially with the use of the word ਘੱਟ before it? It seems to refer to the ability to 'keep a track' so to speak? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laalsingh Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 ਸਿਰੇ means 'to the top'. ਚੜਦਾ means 'going uphill'. Words together mean 'completing'. ਘੱਟ ਹੀ ਸਿਰੇ ਚੜਦਾ means rarely completing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsingh101 Posted February 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 (edited) Couldn't find the meaning of ਵਲਵਲਿਆਂ anywhere? what does the following phrase mean? ਵਲਵਲਿਆਂ ਦਾ ਹੁਲਾਰਾ In a wider context: ਪਰ ਏਥੇ ਧਾਰਮਿਕ ਜ਼ਾਹਰਦਾਰੀ ਵਧ ਜਾਣ ਕਰਕੇ ਇਹ ਲੋਕ ਗੀਤ ਵੀ ਦਇਆ, ਸੰਤੋਖ, ਪਿਆਰ, ਕੁਰਬਾਨੀ ਆਦਿਕ ਦੇ ੳੇਚੇ ਇਨਸਾਨੀ ਵਲਵਲਿਆਂ ਦਾ ਹੁਲਾਰਾ ਦੇਣੋ ਰਹਿ ਚੁੱਕੇ ਸਨ। In a literal translation of the above, I've come out with: But due to the spread of ceremonial/overt displays of religiosity [as opposed to true dharam] these musical folk traditions had ceased imparting the humanitarian xxxxxxxxxx of kindness, contentment, love sacrifice and so forth. If I had to guess, I'd say the missing words/phrase refers to 'reverberation of values/principles' or something like that?

dalsingh101 Posted February 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 Opinions please: I'm not sure about this one? ਗੁਰੂ ਨਾਨਕ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਦੇ ਆਉਣ ਸਮੇਂ ਦੇਸ਼ ਵਿਚ ਰਸਮੀ ਤੌਰ ਤੇ ‘ਤਿਆਗੀ’ ਅਖਵਾਉਣ ਵਾਲੇ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਦੇ ਹੁੰਦਿਆਂ ਭੀ ਅਸਲ ਤਿਆਗ, ਖਲਕ ਤੇ ਖਲਕਤ ਨਾਲ ਪਿਆਰ ਬਹੁਤ ਘੱਟ ਵੇਖਣ ਵਿਚ ਆਉਂਦਾ ਸੀ At the time of the arrival of Guru Nanak Sahib, the majority of country viewed those who called themselves ‘renunciates’ of the conventional way of life, with very little love, even if their renunciation was genuine. Alternatively, are they talking about the lack of love towards general society (ਖਲਕ ਤੇ ਖਲਕਤ??) on part of the hermits (ਤਿਆਗੀ)??? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
