Struggling to differentiate tones in Majhi vs. Malwai dialects
Posted by u/Pronunciationfocus_993 / May 30, 2026
I’m an immersion-focused learner trying to move past subtitles, but I’m finding the pitch accents and tonal differences between Majhi and Malwai speakers incredibly difficult to parse. I record myself mimicking native clips, but I can't tell if I’m hitting the right tone or just sounding like a confused foreigner. Does anyone have specific tips for practicing these tonal shifts, or should I shift my input focus to just one regional dialect for now? I am asking specifically about learning Punjabi, not a generic study routine.
