Understand that Punjabi has symbols for half sounds which are used to indicate partial sounds or as a tone marker, called dutt (ਦੁੱਤ), and that only three letters are used as half sounds:
- half R (ਪੈਰੀ ਰ): goes under a consonant and works as a blend; reads as pr, cr
- half H (ਪੈਰੀ ਹ): used as a tone maker; for example, ਜੜ means fixed and ਜੜ੍ਹ means root
- half V (ਪੈਰੀ ਵ): some examples are ਸ੍ਵਰਣ, ਸ੍ਵਰਗ
