Do you guys mean Verha/verda? Thats wat we call the courtyard/ frontyard with cows n stuff. Like ਵੇੜਾ or ਵਿਹੜਾ 

We pronounce it with a B, but I think it's written with V,  ਵਿਹੜਾ. It maybe pronounced differently in other areas of Punjab, not sure. 

Yes courtyard would be the nearest description.  

"The main identifier of a Punjabi traditional house plan is the courtyard with small flower beds or a small orchard in the centre of it, here you have your celebrations and pujas, and some of these Indian house designs have doors leading into their neighbor’s’ yards.

These houses are composed entirely of baked bricks with timber doors, ideal for the sweltering heat. A cattle pen is usually set within the courtyard – the one feature that hasn’t carried forward to the urban version. The baithak, or living room, lies at the centre of the family’s socialising with simple furniture like charpais spread out. All other rooms lie lateral to it with the courtyard leading off it and a door that opens out to the street. Meanwhile, the verandah that runs all along the house is where most household activities and daily female socialising take place. All this lies wrapped behind a baked boundary wall with idyllic painted doors leading into the street or the next door house."
