As you can see from the table above, the pronunciation of the Panjabi words is written using the English alphabet. However, please keep in mind that the actual pronunciation may differ slightly due to the unique sounds in the Panjabi language.
As you can see from the examples above, Panjabi clothing vocabulary encompasses a wide range of garments and accessories. Take note of the pronunciation and try to practice saying the words out loud. This will help you improve your pronunciation and fluency in Panjabi.
 
Now, let's take a closer look at some of these clothing items.
 
=== Turban ===
 
The turban, or "paṭkā" (ਪਟਕਾ), is a traditional headwear worn by men in the Panjabi culture. It is made up of a long strip of cloth wrapped around the head a few times. The turban is an important part of the Sikh faith and symbolizes honor, self-respect, and courage. The style and color of the turban can vary depending on the region.


=== Salwar and Kameez ===
Cultural Insights and Regional Variations
-----------------------------------------


The "salwār" (ਸਲਵਾਰ) is a loose-fitting pant that is typically worn with a long shirt known as a "kamīz" (ਕਮੀਜ਼). This is a common outfit worn by women in the Panjabi culture, especially during festivals and religious events. The salwar kameez comes in various colors, fabrics, and styles, ranging from plain and simple to heavily embroidered.
Clothing preferences and styles can vary across different regions and cultures. Panjabi clothing, in particular, has its unique cultural significance and style. Let's explore some interesting cultural insights and regional variations related to clothing in Panjabi culture.


=== Jutti ===
1. Traditional Panjabi Clothing: Traditional Panjabi clothing for men includes the kurta, a loose-fitting shirt, and the paṭkā, a turban worn on the head. Women often wear the sari or the salwar kameez, a combination of a loose-fitting tunic (kamīz) and pants (salwar) with a scarf (duppaṭā). These traditional garments are still commonly worn during cultural festivals and special occasions.


The "juṭṭe" (ਜੁੱਤੇ) is a traditional shoe worn by both men and women in Panjabi. Juttis are known for their intricate embroidery and come in a variety of colors and styles. They are also worn during special occasions and weddings.
2. Phulkari Embroidery: Phulkari is a traditional form of embroidery that originated in Panjab. It is characterized by vibrant threadwork and intricate patterns. Phulkari embroidery is often seen on garments like the duppaṭā, adding a touch of cultural heritage to the outfits.


== Accessories in Panjabi ==
3. Regional Variations: Panjab is a region with diverse cultural influences, and this is reflected in its clothing styles. Different districts and communities within Panjab have their unique clothing preferences and styles. For example, the attire worn in the Majha region may differ from that of the Malwa region. Exploring these regional variations can provide you with a deeper understanding of Panjabi culture.


In addition to clothing, accessories also play an important role in Panjabi culture. Here are some of the most common accessories and their names in Panjabi:
4. Traditional Accessories: In addition to clothing, Panjabi culture also values traditional accessories. For men, the traditional accessories include the kirpan (ceremonial dagger) and kara (steel bracelet). Women often wear traditional jewelry like the jhumka (earrings), tikka (headpiece), and chooda (bangles). These accessories add a touch of elegance and cultural significance to the overall attire.
