Should it not be "ਵਿੰਡਹੁਕ", according to the pronunciation? --tari Buttar (talk) ੧੧:੧੭, ੨੨ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

According to Merriam Webster Dictionary (http://www.merriam-webster.com/cgi-bin/audio.pl?ggwind04.wav=Windhoek), howjsay.com (http://www.howjsay.com/index.php?word=windhoek) and Wiki page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windhoek) it should be "ਵਿੰਟਹੁਕ" and neither "ਵੰਟਹੁਕ" nor "ਵਿੰਡਹੁਕ". Thanks! --Babanwalia (talk) ੧੧:੩੨, ੨੨ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
That's the English pronounciation, I moved the title to the Afrikaans pronounciation but either name would be fine. --Zarienah (talk) ੧੧:੪੧, ੨੨ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
On many, wikis it's spelled to be pronunced as "ਵਿੰਡਹੂਕ" and also the German audio file on the en.wiki pronounced it the same as "wind" and "hook". Anyway be it's "wind" or "wint" but the other part is everywhere pronounced as ਹੂਕ. What you say, guys? --tari Buttar (talk) ੧੨:੦੬, ੨੨ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
It's wint the German\Afrikaans "d" makes the "t/ਟ" sound. I think we should move it back to ਵਿੰਟਹੁਕ, where it originally was. --Zarienah (talk) ੧੨:੩੯, ੨੨ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
Okay, finally want all to finally say, to which title it should be moved, in one line (you can use as much lines as you wish but I just mean "be very clear").

I'll suggest for "ਵਿੰਟਹੂਕ" (according to the pronunciation).

If the discussion results on move it back, that'll need an admin to do so. I'll do. --tari Buttar (talk) ੧੩:੨੫, ੨੨ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)

  • Move it back - as per Babanwalia's sources (ਵਿੰਟਹੁਕ) the "oe" is just a short ਉ in Punjabi, it can't be a ਊ. >>Zarienah (talk) ੧੭:੩੯, ੨੨ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
ਵਿੰਟਹੁਕ seems to be the most echt and plausible alternative as the sound tallies the aunkarh and not dulainkarh in Punjabi.--Babanwalia (talk) ੧੮:੪੨, ੨੨ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
Over a redirect or not? --tari Buttar (talk) ੦੨:੫੮, ੨੩ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
Yes please. --Zarienah (talk) ੦੭:੩੩, ੨੩ ਸਿਤੰਬਰ ੨੦੧੨ (UTC)
