What examiners expect

Cultural nuance and register control set Punjabi interpreters apart.

  • Respect honorifics such as ਜੀ (ji) when addressing elders or officials.
  • Code-switching with English words is common—interpret meaning, not literal phrasing.
  • Punjabi speakers often reference extended family in decisions; keep relationships explicit.
  • Tone and politeness markers can shift depending on rural vs. urban dialogue styles.

Where candidates lose marks

  • Maintaining accuracy when speakers shift rapidly between Punjabi and English loan words.
  • Converting imperial and metric units used interchangeably in conversations.
  • Capturing legal terminology that differs between India and Australia.
  • Staying consistent with formal vs. informal second-person forms (ਤੁਸੀਂ/ਤੂੰ).

How we keep you on track

  • Practise with West and East Punjabi accents to normalise pronunciation differences.
  • Drill vocabulary in healthcare and legal contexts—they appear in most NAATI dialogues.
  • Use PassNAATI mock exams to rehearse pacing and note-taking for 20-minute sessions.
  • Record yourself interpreting numbers and addresses to reduce hesitation penalties.
