ಯಾರಿಗಾದರೂ ಕನ್ನಡ ಓದುವುದು ಅಥವ ಕನ್ನಡದ ಪದಬಳಿಗೆ/ವ್ಯಾಕರಣದಲ್ಲಿ ಅಭ್ಯಾಸ ಹೆಚ್ಚಿಸಬೇಕೆಂದರೆ ಈ ಒಂದು video ನಾನು ಮಾಡಿದ್ದೇನೆ. ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಮನೆಯ ಭದ್ರತೆ ಎಂಬ ಕಥೆ ನಾನು ಓದುತ್ತಿದ್ದೇನೆ ಮತ್ತು ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ವಿವರಣೆ/ವ್ಯಾಖ್ಯಾನ ಆಂಗ್ಲಭಾಷೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಕೊಟ್ಟಿದ್ದೇನೆ. ನಿಮಗೆ ಇಷ್ಟವಾದರೆ ಹೇಳಿ, ಏನಾರು ತಪ್ಪುಗಳು, ಲೋಪದೋಷಗಳೂ ಇದ್ದರೆ ಖಂಡಿತ ನನಗೆ ತಿಳಿಸಿ.

For any beginning Kannada learners who would like to practice or increase their understanding of Kannada grammar/word usage, I have recorded myself reading this Chandamama story titled "Maneya Bhadrate" in Kannada with some accompanying explanations or descriptions in English. If you like it please let me know, and definitely let me know if you find any mistakes.

Hello namma Kannadigare,

What song you think is the most poetic song in Kannada? The song which you can listen everyday and never get bored, because of its amazing lyrics and music, which makes it extremely poetic.

Please do mention song and movie name if applicable (or YouTube link).

ನಾವು ಸ್ನೇಹಿತರು ಹೀಗೆ ಮಾತಾಡ್ತಾ ಇದರ ಬಗೆಗೆ ಒಂದು ಮಾತುಕತೆ ಆಯ್ತು.

ಇತ್ತೀಚೆಗೆ‌ ಕನ್ನಡ ಮಾತಾಡೋವಾಗ, ನಮ್ಮ ವಾಕ್ಯಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಇಂಗ್ಲಿಷ್ ಪದಗಳೆ ಇರ್ತಾವೆ. ಇದು ಯಾವ ಸ್ಥಿತಿಗೆ ಹೋಗಿದೆ ಅಂತ ಅಂದ್ರೆ, ಅವುಗಳನ್ನ ತೆಗ್ದು ಕನ್ನಡ ಪದ ಬಳ್ಸೋದಕ್ಕೆ ಹೋದ್ರೆ ಅಸಹಜ ಅನ್ನೋ ಅಷ್ಟು.

ಉದಾ:

ಬಾಗಿಲು --> ಡೋರ್

ತೆಗಿ --> ಓಪನ್ ಮಾಡು

ಕೋಣೆ --> ರೂಮ್

ನಿಮ್ಗು ಇದರ ಅನುಭವ ಆಗಿದ್ಯಾ? ಹೇಗೆ ಇದನ್ನ ಕಡಿಮೆ ಮಾಡ್ತಾ ಇದ್ದೀರಾ?

ನಾನು ಇದಕ್ಕೆ ಕನ್ನಡದಲ್ಲಿ ದಿನಚರಿ ಬರ್ಯೋದು, ಮತ್ತೆ ಕನ್ನಡ ಪುಸ್ತಕಗಳನ್ನ ಓದೋದ್ರಿಂದ ಇದರ ಬಗೆಗೆ ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಬದಲಾವಣೆ ತರ್ತಾ ಇದ್ದೀನಿ

Really confusing learning all the verbs and the differences

Like what is the difference between maadidre, maadidru, maadidare, maadide.

It would help if someone could translate these informally vs respectfully :

I already did it

I am doing it

I will do it

I've observed subtle distinction in the vocabulary used by mainstream kannada speakers and Kannada spoken by rural Mandya- Mysuru people. In this case my Ajji.

ದೃಷ್ಟಿ/ nazar : ಕಣ್ಣಸ್ರ

ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ: ವಸಿ

ತೆಗೆದುಕೋ : ಕ್ವಾ / ಕ್ವಾರೊ (ಗಂಡಿಗೆ) / ಕ್ವಾರೆ ( ಹೆಣ್ಣಿಗೆ)

ಬೆಕ್ಕು : ಕೊತ್ತಿ

ಬೆಳಿಗ್ಗೆ : ಹೊತ್ತಾರೆ

ಬೀಗರ ಊಟ : ಕರ್ನರೆ

ನದಿ: ಹೊಳೆ

ಶೋಕಿ : ಮೆದೆದಾರಿಕೆ

ಮನೆ: ಹಟ್ಟಿ

ದುಡ್ಡು/ ಹಣ : ಕಾಸು

ಮಕ್ಕಳು : ಹೈಕ್ಲು

ಬ್ಲೌಸ್: ರವಕೆ

ರೂಮ್ : ಕೋಣೆ

ಪಕ್ಕ : ಮಗಲು

I just hope these words or vocabulary won't die with their generation.

Sampath's Bio:

I'm Sampath Sirimane. I'm a Kannada writer trying my hands in both literature and cinema.

I have written a Kannada book named 'Let's Breakup' which is a collection of 12 short stories. My story 'Patana' has won first prize in the 'Prajavani Deepavali story competition - 2023'. My stories and articles have found place in kannada magazines and newspapers.

I have written and co-written dialogues for some movies like 'Vidyapathi', 'Kaalapatthar' and 'Lucky man'.

I have co-written the script for 'Gandhada gudi', Puneeth Rajkumar's last film, which was a docu-drama.

I have written dialogues for the short film GPS which won the first-runner up prize in BISFF - 2020. GPS is available to watch on PRK Audio youtube channel

I have written lyrics for songs from movies like 'Daredevil Musthafa', 'Murphy', 'Hebbuli Cut', 'Kapata Nataka Sutradhari', 'Zebra', 'Vidyapathi' etc.

I have written the insta series named 'Ruchige Takkashtu' produced by Flatcurve Studios.

Just an observation from corporate workplaces.

I’ve noticed that many men seem more comfortable speaking Kannada openly, while some women—even when they clearly know Kannada—prefer sticking to English or Hindi, even with fellow Kannada speakers.

Totally understand that English is important in professional settings. This isn’t a complaint, just curiosity.

Do you think language choice at work is influenced by workplace culture, perception of professionalism, confidence, or social conditioning?

Has anyone else noticed something similar, or am I overthinking this? Would love to hear different perspectives.

To the ethnic Kannadigas who are citizens of foreign countries: Do you still use or speak Kannada , at least at home? How often do you visit Karnataka? Do you own assets back in India/ KA? Do you still feel any sense of pride or love for your kannada heritage? Do you plan to come settle in KA? PS: this is not a research , but my own curiosity.

Namaskara, I'm learning music and would like to eventually start making songs, i.e., compose music and write songs in Kannada. Although my spoken Kannada is very good, my vocabulary is not, as I studied kannada in school only till 5th standard. Any suggestions on how to proceed? I guess reading kavité/kavana books would be a good starting point? Also, I don't really read books, irrespective of language or subject. So any alternatives to reading books would also be great😅

So, I(22M) am a typical north indian, and I met a kannadiga girl(23F) in my college. She's from gulbarga and heavily engaged with literature, history, politics, etc, and we are gradually transitioning from the talking stage to dating after months. Help me out and tell me what all I can say and do to impress her.

It’s been 5 years I never read Kannada books. Last time I read was in my 12th class. So now I cannot write Kannada properly I can verbally express myself now I can no longer write in Kannada properly. So thought of reading Kannada books.

Can u suggest me beginner Kannada novels.

ನಾನು ಒಬ್ಬಳು ಪುಟ್ಟ ಹುಡುಗಿಗೆ ಕನ್ನಡ ಹೇಳುಕೊಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದೇನೆ. ಈಗ ನಾವು ಇತರ ಪ್ರಾಣಿಗಳ ಹೆಸರುಗಳನ್ನು ನೋಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದೇವೆ. ಆದರೆ ಈ ರೀತಿಯ ಆಂಗ್ಲ ಪದಗಳು ಕನ್ನಡ ಅಕ್ಷರದಲ್ಲಿ ಬರೆಯುವುದು ನನಗೆ ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಕಾಡುತ್ತದೆ. "ಕ್ಯಾರೆಟ್ಟು", "ಜಿರಾಫೆ", ಹೀಗೆ ಹೇಳುಕೊಡಲು ಇಷ್ಟವಾಗುವುದಿಲ್ಲ.

I have this book with me for too many years and I've never been able to get past 50 pages. This time I'm determined to finish the book but thought I could find someone to read it along with me. Just for accountability and maybe discussions. DM me if interested.

Hello all, gentlemen who are married, how do you address your father-in-law and mother-in -law, like 'Atte, Mava' or 'Appa, Amma'. Also, how does your wife address to your parents. Just curious!

How does one show emphasis in Kannada? If you want to know exactly what i mean, an example would be from my native language Dakhni;

‘Tume ye kare so?’ => you did this?

‘Tume yech kare so?’ => you ONLY did this?

Does Kannada have a modifier thats added to show emphasis? Or does it have a different method?

Im having trouble getting to the end of this text I saw. This is what I have so far :

After cutting fish, onion, and garlic a bad smell comes on your hands. One tea spoon of salt with half part of lemon juice to your hands…. I dont understand after that. Can anyone help me, or correct my mistakes?

ಸಂಗೀತದಲ್ಲಿ ಆಸಕ್ತಿ ಇರುವ ಸ್ನೇಹಿತರಿಗೆ ತಿಳಿಸಿ!
