Jhangvi (جھنگوی), Jhangochi (جھنگوچی) or Rachnavi(رچناوی) is a dialect of Punjab, Pakistan which is intermediate between Standard Punjabi and Saraiki.[1] Its name is derived from Jhang.[2] It is spoken throughout a widespread area, starting from Khanewal to Jhang District at either end of Ravi and Chenab.[3] Jhangvi word has limitations as it does not represent whole bar area of Punjab as such it can be considered subdialect of Jatki/Jangli. It is pertinent to mention here that native people mostly use Jatki word for their dialect. Jatki/Jangli dialect is spoken by Indigenous people of Jhang, Faisalabad, Toba Tek Singh, Chiniot, Vehari, Khanewal, Okara, Sahiwal, Hafizabad, Nankana Sahib, Pakpattan, [[Bahawalnagar], Sargodha and Fazilka districts.[citation needed]
The Jangli word is drived from mayo region.
Jangli/Jatki's sound inventory includes implosive consonants, but unlike in Saraiki these do not have phonemic status, as they do not contrast with plain voiced consonants.[4] The implosives are also more common than in Saraiki, and their set contains the unusual for the area dental implosive (/ɗ̪/), which contrasts with the regular retroflex implosive /ᶑ/.[5][6]
