Right on bro! that's malwa allright, minus the loon part. In my family we say both namak and noon, but never loon.

I think namak is a hindi term. I've never heard it used in the pinds, mostly higher educated city families. Noon, is the norm for me, heard of loon though. :p

i think thats just the spelling, like the "bh" makes a "p" sound if i'm correct
