意味
Asking for identity on phone.
文化的背景
It is considered polite to wait for the caller to identify themselves first, but if they don't, 'Kaun bol riha hai?' is the standard prompt. In Punjabi offices, people often use 'ਕੌਣ ਗੱਲ ਕਰ ਰਿਹਾ ਹੈ?' (Who is talking?) as it sounds slightly more professional than 'bolna'. In villages, people might use the Majhi dialect form 'ਕੌਣ ਬੋਲਦਾ ਪਿਆ?' which is more colloquial. Younger Punjabis often mix English, saying 'Hello, ਕੌਣ ਬੋਲ ਰਿਹਾ?' or just 'Who's this?'.
The 'Ji' Rule
Always add 'Ji' if you don't recognize the voice. It's better to be too polite than too rude in Punjabi culture.
Gender Neutrality
If you are unsure if the caller is male or female, always use the masculine 'riha'. It is the grammatically neutral form.

よくある質問
4 問Yes, but technically you should change 'riha' to 'rahi' (ਕੌਣ ਬੋਲ ਰਹੀ ਹੈ?). However, if you don't know who is calling, 'riha' is the standard default.
It's not necessarily rude, but it's very informal. 'Kaun bol riha hai' is much more natural and common.
'Bolna' means to speak/utter sounds. 'Gall karna' means to have a conversation. Both are used on the phone, but 'gall karna' is slightly more formal.
You say 'ਮੈਂ [Your Name] ਬੋਲ ਰਿਹਾ ਹਾਂ' (I am [Name] speaking).
