Puttar (ਪੁੱਤਰ), also written putar, means son in Punjabi: a male child in relation to his parents. Its shorter everyday form is putt (ਪੁੱਤ). Both are core family words, heard at home when parents talk about their son, and puttar is also used as a warm way of addressing a son. ## Putt and puttar in everyday speech At home, the short form putt is very common. A parent calling a child in from the vehra, asking about school, or giving a small task will often use putt. The fuller puttar appears in introductions and in slightly more careful speech, as in mera puttar, my son. Used as a form of address, puttar carries warmth: an elder may call a young man puttar even when he is not a close relative, as a kind and respectful way of speaking to him. Like other Punjabi family words, puttar states a relation exactly. It tells the listener at once that the boy or man being discussed is someone's son, and it is usually paired with the parents' names or with words such as vadda, elder, or chhota, younger, when a family has more than one son. ## Related family words Puttar sits in the same core set as dhee, the word for daughter. Together, a puttar and a dhee are the children of their maape, their parents, and part of the parivar, the family. In the next generation, a son's son is a pota and a son's daughter is a poti. Learning these words as a set is the easiest way to follow Punjabi family conversation. ## What is the difference between putt and puttar? There is no difference in meaning: both mean son. Putt is the shorter form used most in daily speech at home, while puttar is the fuller form, common in introductions, writing and affectionate address. ## How do you say son in Punjabi? Son in Punjabi is puttar (ਪੁੱਤਰ), with the short form putt (ਪੁੱਤ). You can say mera puttar for my son, and vadda puttar for elder son. ## How is puttar used in a sentence? You can say: ਮੇਰਾ ਪੁੱਤਰ ਕਾਲਜ ਪੜ੍ਹਦਾ ਹੈ, which means my son studies at college.
