Its just an informal way of trying to express the pronunciation, like arabs write 3 for "ain", like ya3ni or 7 for "ha", like A7med.

Capital N, represents a softer form of N, where the sound is "nasal" but does not end with tongue joining the palate for a proper N.

Punjabi is written in two forms, Pakistanis write in arabic alfabets, with some variations, while Indians write in a different way called "Gurumukhi".

As for urdu, Indians speak a different language called "hindi", which has essentially the same structure as urdu but has lot of sansikrat words, as compared to urdu which as lot of persian, Turkish and arabic words.

good synopsis. u've summed up pretty well.

urdu lashkari zabaan hai aur is meN bahooot sii zabaanoN ke alfaaz shaamil haiN jaise french [pantaloN for patloon (pant); roTi for roti, posse' for paasii 9a caste in Hinduism)]
