Gosht as goshat or goshut. Doodh as dudh. Jana as janra or janwran. Khana as khanran or khawanran. Bolna as bolanran. Seekhna as sikhnran. Dhona as dhowanran.
Basti as wasti. Truck as taruck
The gosht part is correct but not everyone does that, apart from that i have no idea what you're trying to say in the rest of your comment.

Biscuit as Biskut
Thats also a person to person thing not everyone does that.

When in my friends circle I personally call it bayskut. So what?
I ironically call it biskut when with friends not infront of anyone else though, it does feel good.

There is also a difference of pronunciation between rural and urban areas.
Might be but I've never heard anyone say it like that not sure where he heard it.

Chai as chah
now thats like saying why we're even speaking the language, because that is a proper punjabi word there are very subtle differences in punjabi and urdu this is one of them this word is included in the punjabi vocabulary.

In certain rural areas, people say "chharhak" instead of "sarhak".
What place? Im curious because being from punjab i never heard it him being outside of punjab and hearing that is really interesting to me.

Or could be the peraon he heard it from is a weirdo an exception.

It is not Sialkoti. This is how people speak written strange lgta ha aapki written Punjabi bhi mujhay strange lgti ha.

Ku k my accent is jaangli in nature, the true and theeth Punjabi you could ever listen to. But the one you guys speak takes a toll at - - - - - - - no offence to lahoris and the adjoining districts :D
