About Eastern Punjabi
Eastern Punjabi, or Shahmukhi Punjabi's counterpart, is an Indo-Aryan language spoken by approximately 33 million people, primarily in the Indian state of Punjab. It has a rich literary history stretching back to the medieval period, with the poetry of Sufi saints and Sikh Gurus forming a foundational part of its literary canon.
Eastern Punjabi is written using the Gurmukhi script, which was standardized by the second Sikh Guru, Guru Angad Dev, in the 16th century. The script's name literally means "from the mouth of the Guru." Punjabi holds the distinction of being the only living tonal language among the major Indo-Aryan languages, using tone to distinguish word meanings. It is also the language of the Guru Granth Sahib, the sacred scripture of Sikhism.
