Sat Sri Akal

I do the Jap Ji Sahib in the mornings, and i found the translations of the Parth on a website. i was juss wondering if i can read the JapJi Sahib in the mornings, as usual, but in the english translation instead? Thanks for your time, and sorry if the question has been asked before

Sat Siri Akal! Yes, you can read JapJi Sahib in any language. If you learn to read in Gurmukhi, but you don't understand the meaning in Gurmukhi, you might like to try what I did. I read Japji Sahib in Gurmukhi six days a week, and then on Sunday morning I read it in English. After a while, I began to understand the Gurmukhi automatically as your brain will make the cross-connection without effort. For this to work, you must read out loud (not silently.)
