Consonant letters in Kannada each have an innate vowel attached to them, and for other vowels, they change shape. Kannada speaking communities can be difficult to find outside of Karnataka, and the best way to find them is through the Kannada Kootas in the United States, as well as the Kannada Balaga in the UK.
While by no means exhaustive of all the cultural and idiomatic nuances of the language, this aims to provide a decent understanding of the language. This text is intended as a guide for beginners in Kannada as well as those who are familiar with only the basics. I hope this text will help other Kannadigas who are isolated from our mother tongue as I was, and allow us to keep the tradition of passing down our mother tongue from generation to generation. The lack of a Kannada-speaking community might have compelled me to abandon the language entirely, but I decided that I was going to learn, because this language was a part of me and who I was. My journey in learning Kannada has been an exercise in my ability to re-learn a language that I grew up speaking poorly, and immerse myself in my heritage.
It also should be noted that Kannada speakers generally prefer the Dravidian form of most words, and many Sanskrit equivalents to existing words are often used in poetry and literary works.Īs a child, I did not know Kannada very well, because of a speech disorder, and because my parents were advised to refrain from teaching me anything but English. Many common, everyday words are of primarily Dravidian origin, and most complex, technical, and area-specific words are mostly of Sanskrit origin, though occasionally they turn up in everyday language. Like several other Indian languages, Kannada grammar is relatively complex and requires careful study.
My name is Shashank Rao, and thank you for choosing to learn Kannada, a fascinating and rich language! Kannada is a Dravidian language spoken primarily in the state of Karnataka in South India, as well as in border areas of states surrounding it.
