This course includes Lessons 1-5 from the Punjabi Level 1 program featuring 2.5 hours of language instruction. Each lesson provides 30 minutes of spoken language practice, with an introductory conversation, and new vocabulary and structures. Detailed instructions enable you to understand and participate in the conversation. Practice for vocabulary introduced in previous lessons is included in each lesson. The emphasis is on pronunciation and comprehension, and on learning to speak Punjabi.
Whether you want to travel, communicate with friends or colleagues, reconnect with family, or just understand more of what’s going on in the world around you, Pimsleur will help you learn Punjabi and expand your horizons and enrich your life.
If the voice presenters were too fast to reply to then you can simply drop the speed down to 0.75x, so the pacing wasn't that much of an issue.
Only problem I have with these introductory units is that they spent way too much time going over the greetings in comparison to more complex phrases. I don't know how many times I repeated "sata srī akāla" but it wasn't necessary. I get it. Saying hello is one of the easiest things you can remember. It's just one word. They should have spent more time teaching the phrases and how different grammatical constructs affect words like "ā'undī" and "bōlō". Or they could have introduced a couple different ways to say hello, like they did with the Muslim greeting.
The words themselves aren't hard to remember, it's the context that they apply to and the word order you have to follow to be comprehensible. Like I still don't know the difference between "mainū" and "maim" or the difference between "hai", "hā", "hō", "hām", "hīm", etc. Maybe they will explain these things in later units. But for now I am still confused.
Good introduction to learning Punjabi
