So, you will have to be careful and try to pronounce it correctly. If you practice it enough times, you should be fine, especially in this case. Daas finds ਕਰਾਵਨਹਾਰ is easier to pronounce than ਕਰਾਵਣਹਾਰ, as nose muscles comes into the play for the latter one. Were you born in the west?

None of them require nose muscles. You are most likely pronouncing it wrong or trying too hard to pronounce it thereby using nose muscles in the process. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I_AM Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 Mispronunciation of Gurbani is a sin which is not forgivable. We must always strive to pronounce it correctly, if in doubt, we should seek help of a very good teacher. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, it is a sin (and that we should strive to pronounce Gurbani correctly), but Sri Satguru jee can forgive these kinds of mistakes (if they are honest ones).
