They generally speak Standard Punjabi or various Punjabi dialects on both sides.

Social Groups Of Pakistan
Social organisms, including human(s), live collectively in interacting populations. This interaction is considered social whether they are aware of it or not, and whether the exchange is voluntary or not. Etymology The word "social" derives from the Latin word ''socii'' ("allies").
