Gurbani Grammar: Aunkar and Sihaari Rules

Gurbani Viakaran Guide: 1. Final Aunkar (_ੁ) on masculine singular nouns (e.g. ਨਾਨਕੁ, ਜਨੁ, ਭਗਤੁ). 2. Mukta ending indicating plural or vocative address (e.g. ਹੇ ਨਾਨਕ). 3. Final Sihaari (_ਿ) acting as locative or instrumental case indicator (in/by/through, e.g. ਘਰਿ = ਘਰ ਵਿੱਚ). Understanding these grammatical rules illuminates the deep philosophical meanings intended by the Gurus.
