^ My bad but I guess this is where dialect comes into play- Noh must be used more on the Doaba side I am assuming (you "yoh" users

)?? From what I know, in Malwai Punjabi we say Nah for name. So hearing someone say "Bhai das tera noh" would sound strange to me.
i hear noh around malwa quite a bit too? i think nah's just pindu slang for naam cuz people r just lazy like that
Umm no, Naah is the proper way to say name in Punjabi... look it up.
And Hardeep I wouldnt take too much offense- just because someone is brought up in the Pindhs doesn't automatically make them "pindu." Being "pindu" encompasses certain mannerisms, viewpoints, education levels, etc etc. And yes there is a stigma that pindu people are lazy (not agreeing or disagreeing)... not sure if using slang directly reflects being lazy though.
